5 Greatest Didier Drogba Moments

#3 100th Premier League Goal

Chelsea's Didier Drogba scored PL goal no. 100 v Stoke

Drogba is a bonafide legend of the modern game. In 2011-12, he became the first African to score a 100 English top-flight goals. He had already scored more than a hundred goals in all competitions for Chelsea two years ago.

His goal came in a mixed final campaign of his first spell at the club. He entered the 100 club against Stoke in a routine 1-0 win. He turned in a low volley from Juan Mata's cross to land the landmark goal in March 2012. Drogba's goal set him up for the record books as well as he entered the Top 25 Goalscorers of all time in the Premier League era.

He would not score any more in the league that campaign but would add four more in his second spell at the West London club to take his tally to 104. The emergence of Romelu Lukaku and Harry Kane has relegate Drogba to 27th on the all-time scorers list, which does not reflect the importance his goals had for Chelsea in their most successful decade in history.
