EXTRA TIME: Watch how Didier Drogba celebrated Chelsea’s Europa League final berth

Didier Drogba went wild to celebrate Chelsea's triumph over Eintracht Frankfurt as they progressed to the Uefa Europa League final on Thursday.

After settling a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Frankfurt, Ruben Loftus-Cheek's effort in the 28th minute was not enough for the Blues on Thursday as Luka Jovic's equaliser tied them to a 2-2 aggregate draw.

The encounter proceeded into penalty shoot-out with goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga saving two efforts while Eden Hazard converted the winning penalty to give Chelsea a 4-3 win.

Drogba, delighted with the progress of his former club, shared a video of himself shouting and jubilating in his house after Maurizio Sarri's men confirmed their qualification for the final of the European tournament billed for Baku on May 29.
