Olga Allegra, the Russian girlfriend of Nigeria and Chelsea midfielder, John Obi Mikel, is proud of her man netting his first UEFA Champions League goal during the London side victory over Sporting Lisbon of Portugal.

Mikel scored on Wednesday when he was the first to react after Fabregas swung in a free kick from the left hand side that was flicked towards goal by Cahill. His goal was the third on the night for the London side, who won 3-1.

Allegra, delighted after her man scored the goal in the 56th minute against Sporting Lisbon, took to her Instagram page to celebrate the goal by posting a photo with Mikel.

She captioned it: ‘So proud of you my love.’

Few days ago, Mikel was in the company of his in-laws-to-be and friends as the Russian model celebrated her birthday.
