Didier Drogba:
"Torres' time at Chelsea wasn't as expected. Some even said it was one of the worst signings in the club's history in terms of performance compared to the price paid for him. But he scored a goal that will remain in the memory of the Blues forever.
Torres was not part of coach Di Matteo's main plans during the 2012 Champions League campaign. He was only used for about 10 minutes across both legs of the semifinal against Barcelona.
The equalizing goal he scored back then was historic and important for everyone. I remember he received the ball after a dangerous Barcelona attack near our penalty area. Xavi Hernández tried to pass through the depth of our defense, and if Torres hadn’t been in the right place at the right moment, Barcelona might have had one last chance — and no one knows how that could’ve ended.
In the final minute of the match, he broke free and received the ball alone in Barcelona’s half, scoring the goal. I remember Roberto Di Matteo’s joy and the celebrations of the Chelsea players. After the match, Roman Abramovich came into the dressing room and told Torres, ‘You’re never leaving this place.’"
