✨Rolling back the years: Drogba scores hattrick against a Wenger-managed team

Didier Drogba rolled back the years with a stunning hattrick for Marseille in a charity match on Wednesday night.

The Ivorian has been out of the game for three years now but proved he hasn’t lost a step against a UNICEF XI coincidentally managed by Arsene Wenger.

It was also the first time the Frenchman was taking to the dugout since leaving the Emirates Stadium. 

Wenger’s side took an early 2-1 lead at the Stade Velodrome before Drogba took centre stage netting a hat-trick as the Marseille legends won 7-4.

The match saw other legends, including former Arsenal stars Robert Pires, Mathieu Flamini, Samir Nasri, and Jens Lehmann all feature. 

Wenger's side had the likes of David Trezeguet, Patrick Kluivert and Esteban Cambiasso.

Here are the goals;
