The match ended 2-2 and Chelsea fans blamed Mikel for giving the ball away just ten minutes before time and also not preventing the equalizing goal. After the end of the game, Chelsea fans racially abused Mikel on his Twitter account @Mikel12Official, prompting the Super Eagles midfielder to delete the account which he set up just a few months back.
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."

That's so sad. Football is supposed to unify people. All this racism is uncalled for.
Really, he just signed up on twitter which day , poor him. I surprise ths guy doesn't know wat been a black person entails in d uk. Na dat country racism start and end o. Most times the unspoken discrimination is more than d spoken one. He needs to develop thick skin o, cos na their way. John Terry that was charged to court 4 racist abuse after everythin was acquitted. Mikel shd brace himself o

Welcome to London! Thank God for mercy journey! :)

I guess ur a united fan, mikel messed up period, he's lucky I didn't know he had a twitter account
FUNNY WEN A WHITE BOY MAKES A MISTAKE D WHOLE WORLD WANTS TO CRUCIFY HIM...SMH
The player to blame for both goals is Terry!! 1. Failed to block Vidal's shot 2. Played Quagliarella onside
Well mikel,you are a black person,no matter how good you are at what you do,Racism happens,racism will come your way,next time,close your eyes,if you didn't play we'll,don't goon twitter,social media is the worst,I'd told you Hun,stay off social media,you were fine until you joined twitter.have a thick skin and you will be fine
Guess it's not only in Nigeria we have agbero type of chelsea fans.
Wetin police wan do for the matter, trace the tweets!?
Dude come home, and play for Enyimba jare;)
Mikel was d best midfielder dat nite????**whew**
He tried.for dem
I beg the guy lack confidence in his game.tho he is a gud player buh he needs to step up. Fear is not part of the game. He really messed up that night buh that is not enof for fans to racially abuse him. Wake up!!!! Mikel;Nigerians love you.
he should do himself a favour and marry a black woman, not those yeye black footballers that marry unattractive white women. it Doesnt make the white idiots less racist towards you.
That's a shame, I am such a huge fan...AND I AM WHTE. Keep ya head up Mikel Obi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcE1YRDaFmY&feature=player_embedded
People can be so mean. *smh*
Dude played crap dat nite buh fans forgot so soon he gave them d UCL cup last season. Feel his pains tho! Linda don rch London since yesterday na.... Activating her parry mood!
linda,any good fans and a footballer,and also a gambler in any football match must knew that chealsea match must be 3-1 or 2-2,,,or 1-3,,,,but mikel miss and mistaken one ball,you must know that any ball mikel miss are goal,but defender close it up and gave away out,,mikel tried much,,i love him,,nigerians dont respect what them have,
This blog is dry for 2days now, mtcheeeeeew! sorry I see ur on ur way to London for d parry?(dancing)
When will dis racism palaver end???
I dnt know why people would still go on to racially abuse him even after apologising. He's human and can make mistakes like anyother person and this was no exception
Mschewww...is dis d best news of yday? Abeg go n bring d spanish remix of olivertwist jor b4 ur tribalistic u have d best of ur existence
Its actually sad but expected that some fans don't even understand the game...like said earlier he was their best midfielder that night. Juventus were a very strong side and even when Mikel lost the ball, they still had the defence to protect it but they choose only one man to blame. I call it picking the easiest target to blame. Total Rubbish
He shouldn't have deleted it. Racist are everywhere and its normal
Mikel, no mind them jare, na jealousy dey worry them. Just don't let their comments dull your good spirit.
No he wasn't the best midfielder. He was lazy that night. He could have been better
Stupid Mikel good for him joooor
@Anon 11.40 pm..
Are you for real or just being sarcastic? Dude got the worst ranking of everybody on that pitch for both teams on all football sites who analysed the game. Even the substitutes got a better score than he did.. His passing was poor, his recovery rates were poorer and though he apologized, it was a classic case of medicine after death. The entire Chelsea team needs to get off their last season's high horse if they want to achieve anything this season. I am not in support of racism in any guise but i think deleting his Twitter account(which he opened only because he was compelled by the club to do so for an interview to answer fans' questions which held by that medium during pre-season) really shows his emotional maturity but i am not surprised anyway as that is his stock in trade... By the way, i am a confirmed True Blue and not a Roman Army which most Nigerians are. If you do not know who or what the Roman Army is, you just proved my point exactly....
Linda, have fun while in London and try make time to see the home game against Stoke on the morrow...
Eya....poor mikel....if i was him....i'll insult dem back....if dey call me black monkey...i'll call dem white pig..lolz
Its quite unfortunate,just coz he failed to mark an opponent. I pray he stays focused at dis trying time.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310
I don't no anytin about football so I can't comment. I just no mikel is a good footballer
make those yellow monkeys leave d black monkey alone.
I dnt blame them set of illitrates who knw nothing but 2 abuse mikel if it were 2 b dat idiotic lampard they wuld av hail'd him
I disagree with you on that,the team had a bad second half because the midfeild couldn't hold the ball; Mikel particularlly gave the ball away too easily on numerous occasions. However, that is not a justification for singling out a player cos he is black!
U know 4 oyiboland anytin bad wey happen na d fault of d foreigner.D goal sef na John terry wan play offside trap wit d scorer but im com fail.Dis na mikel nemesis always dumping naija 2 play 4 chelsea
How dare they! Some white folks can be terrible! N den sm black brainwashed pple can b stupid too! Mikel darling u did great don't mind dem owk... Bad belle fit C☃♏ε̲̣̣̣̥ in different ways but Ω̴̴̩̩̩̥a still badt belle! Silly pple! (Its just a game, get lives)
Dat good 4 him, let him learn how to value is own country
Wa do u mean he was d best midfielder dat nite,, he made the error that gave juve the equalizing goal..so he shod dela with the racist comment
He even outplayed lampard he shouldn't mind those bastards who don't know anything about there country except what they are shown on TV....proudly Nigerian.
Linda u've bn rili dry,pls try to undate more news
Anon 11:40 u can say that again. He played well. All dese racist white pple, God will judge them accordingly. See what they made my Mikel do now *sadface*. Buh Mikel u need to develop a thick skin.
very childish of Mikel, as a star nd celeb u shuld b able to cope wif both abuses and praises, although Chelseafc reports his account wasnt deleted bcos of d abuses.....not withstanding, blue is still d colour
White pple r sets of dick wifout ballz...john terry fails in his offsyd trap & he gets nofyn...wifout mikel in dt match m sure chelsea wud av conceeded more goals sef...
He surely deserve that,wen u don't wanna play 4 ya country bt wanna die 4 ya club,he must c nw dat dey don't appreciate im
I just wish all celeb shld delete dier twitter acct,,,cos peeps ar takin advanta of it to insult dem at d slightest oppur
cant stop laughing.
Welcome back Linda from being MIA; missed your blog yesterday- please back to work o... this isn't gist enuff. lol
yawn comment pls
First of all the whole idea of twitter is an oxymoron and secondly, its pathetic how Nigerians are fanatical about the English premiership and can't be bothered to develop or support their own local league, one idiot even says he's a confirmed true blue.lol I think the imperialists achieved and maintain a great lock on the colony. Why won't racism exist when you have no pride...
Swine! It's u d@ has badluck. Fool! Crawl bak 2 hole u came out 4rm. Olori buruku oshi
Watever. It's d price for fame. He won't die.
I dislike chelsea fans. They're very sore losers, cantankerous, loud & fickle. They're the same all over. Here in nigeria, most of them aren't schooled. Studies have shown that when 5 okada men are arguing, just know its about chelsea :)
anon 7:39am, do u knw u re stupid? I want to believe that u re very much aware of ur stupity, how dare u open ur stinking mouth to talk anyhow?!
Anyway i don't blame u! I bet u re among all street yoruba urchins who doesn't even knw how to pass cricket talk more of football, jst bcus mikel is an ibo? Nonsense!!

Pls pack wella, nd pack away from progressive peoples.
#ejikebigdick

Kai my broda, ur comment has put me in a sober mood. Got me thinking man!
They should let him be please
Relax Mikel, though you were indeed below average against Juve,its no justification for all the hate you're getting.
Cheer up... @ least you're not a certain £50k waste of space that shows up like a leap year!
ewu yoruba!! Wat do u knw about football? Shut those trap upp!
#ejikebigdick

Mikel is a shit player!!! Mediocre and average...he shouldn't be in chelsea...dunno y he still wears the blue jersey...deserves all the abuse he gets
What did u expect from someone that choose to wear their wt pride whilst his father was kidnapped back home... Good for him...
Anon9:36am..You are a crazy bigot. What has being Ibo got to do with Mikel stupid performance that night? Mikel is an average footballer who is too cautious and not adventurous. A footballer who scored last for Chelsea in 2006!! Even Ivanovic, A. Cole, Terry and other defenders scores. Football is about scoring, not just defending. Have you seen Mikel in opponents box 18 before? Has any team bidded for him for the past years. Maggot, answer NOW!!!
Yeye Ibo boy who stay in Lagos and comes from one tiny erosion ravaged
@Anon9:36am, you are d stupid one...to tink I ws supporting U wen I read ur 1st paragraph.. U shldnt hav involved tribes here U foolish cunt, motherfucker oshi! Alainironu radarada...oponu!!! Mscheeeewww
Mr replier, was following ur comment until u went tribal. For all u kno, the commenter can even be a non-Nigerian!
How u can so easily think with ur eyeball is beyond me! Don't start a war when ur not sure of ur opposition.
Idiots so he had a bad game he should be racially abused abi??..how come that doesn't happen to White players..how many times has Terry messed up..right up to the UCL Semi-finals..oh u forgot about that!!!..silly 9ja Chelsea fans..have no idea as to what goes on in the UK...Chelsea have this hard core racist group...Google is ur best mate!!..and they can never completely get rid of them..
This is not the first time Mikel making another mistake. Against Liverpool, was the contributor of the defeat.Honest speaking, he plays well but lacks proper communication. He needs to concentrate how he gives some passes. Otherwise, people will continue to blame him and will loose the focus.
I don't do football but there is no reason whatsoever for a racist comment. They were many other things to be said. Most of u that are saying twas gud 4 him, I want to believe u've never been constantly faced with the pain of racism. And true Chelsea fans are sore loosers.
Why am i not surprised?
Racism DO exist abroad!
How was it is fault huh?
Please he should be heavily protected before one wacko goes bonkers!
