Jose Mourinho says he will take his children to the wrestling if Chelsea fail to get the better of Valencia and book their place in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
David Silva scored a potentially decisive away goal for the Spaniards with a quite stunning finish from 25 yards out on 35 minutes in the first leg of their quarter-final at Stamford Bridge before Didier Drogba was on hand to level the tie eight minutes into the second half.
Drogba, who became the first player to score 30 goals in a season for Chelsea in over 20 years, has insisted that he and his team-mates will not be under pressure when they head to the Mestalla next Tuesday for the second leg.
Mourinho, who is determined to remain upbeat, told reporters: "I do not see why we cannot get a result. It is 1-1. It is not 0-3. Chelsea can win in Valencia, we can draw 2-2 or go to extra-time, but of course it will be difficult.
"It is not my biggest challenge. If we win, we go to the semi-final, if we lose, I will go to Earls Court and watch the wrestling on the 24th. So if I do not go to the semi-final, then I will go to the wrestling with my kids."
And Drogba added: "There will be no pressure on us in the second leg, the pressure was here when they scored. So now we don't have any pressure. It is not the best result but I think we can still do something there."
