Nigeria midfielder Mikel Obi has apologised for the Champions League blunder that allowed Juventus a 2-2 draw against holders Chelsea.
With just 10 minutes remaining at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, Chelsea were on course to open their title defence with a victory after two goals from Brazil midfielder Oscar gave them a 2-1 lead over the Italian champions.
In a brief interview after the game said he thinks Chelsea switched off that it was a pass meant Eden Harzard but unfortunately it didn’t get him that was when everything went awry but he felt Chelsea would have dealt with it properly.
Mikel then apologised thereafter saying “If I want to make up an excuse, I can, but for me, I gave the ball away. I put my hands up, we move on.
“I’m sorry about the mistake, but there are no excuses” Mikel concluded

He has also removed his profile from the social networking site less than 24 hours after his mistake.
Chelsea have condemned racist abuse of Mikel John Obi on Twitter, after the midfielder deleted his account.
However, the club admitted that they have informed the police after being made aware of the developments.
A statement read: "We've been made aware of racist tweets targeted at Mikel which are totally unacceptable, disgusting and abhorrent. We've informed the police and support taking the strongest possible action."
