    Die-hard Nigerian fans of Chelsea have got a cow  ready ahead of today’s UEFA Champions League triumph celebration.

The cow, which is painted in Chelsea’s colour of blue and white, will be the cynosure of Chelsea fans who eagerly await the 7.45 kick-off at the Allianz Arena, Munich, Germany.

It would be recalled that a similar scenario took place in 2008 when the Stamford Bridge dwellers lost the Cup to Manchester United in Moscow.

Meanwhile, Bayern have been given the go-ahead by UEFA to use their home changing room at the Allianz Arena for today’s match against Chelsea.

Bayern, aiming to become the first team of the host city to win a Champions League final on home soil, are officially playing a neutral match today.

However, a club official said Bayern would be using their usual changing room instead of the other two neutral ones available. “That is correct,” he said.

The German side have been allocated 17,500 tickets, the same number as Chelsea, and are named as home team for marketing and logistical purposes as the host city was decided years before that year’s competition.
