Drogba jokes that 'holy water' caused Phoenix' comeback

Phoenix were trailing 3-2 behind Galaxy before Drogba catalysed a turn-around in their luck. Whilst waiting to take a corner, the striker grabbed a sip of water from a bottle provided by two children standing pitchside. 

Almost immediately afterwards, Drogba's corner kick met with Jason Johnson's head to equalise for Phoenix, and the former Ivory Coast international celebrated by pouring the remainder over his head.

Phoenix then went on to claim victory following a 78-minute penalty from Drogba. The 40-year-old posted on social media after the match to joke that he must have taken a sip of ''holy water'' to launch the comeback.
