Chelsea’s David Luiz hugged his lookalike, Slavia Prague’s Alex Král, after the two sides met in the Europa League at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night.
Following Chelsea’s 4-3 win in the quarter-final second leg match, the two defenders also swapped shirts and posed for a dressing room photo together.

In an eventful game, Maurizio Sarri’s men raced into a 3-0 lead through Pedro, Olivier Giroud and a Simon Deli own goal inside the opening seventeen minutes.
Tomáš Souček pulled one back for the visitors, with Pedro doubling his personal tally soon afterwards.

Petr Ševčík dragged the Czech side back into the tie with two long-range thunderbolts in three second-half minutes, but it was not enough.
Chelsea will take on Eintracht Frankfurt in the semi-finals, with Arsenal up against Valencia.
