Watch: Irish boy has kickabout with Chelsea star Willian at Stamford Bridge

A young Irish boy was left ecstatic when Chelsea star Willian joined him for a kickabout outside Stamford Bridge.

Daniel McGee had traveled to London for his first game ever staying at the football ground's hotel.

The youngster, from Co Tyrone, received a quick handshake from superstar Eden Hazard followed by a picture with Brazilian David Luiz.

Daniel then saw Brazilian winger Willian and ran to him for an autograph. Next thing you know he found himself playing keepy-uppy with the star.

Daniel's mother Bernie said: "Daniel asks for an autograph... I'm busy getting the camera ready so I can't hear properly, but I just see Willian turn his back on Daniel and I think 'oh no!!'

"But he actually said, 'Do you want to play?' And that's how it happened really. I hit record then.
"I think we are still in shock! I don't think its sunk in with him,"

Although Daniel's soccer skills looked up to par in the video we were told by his father that he 's a keen GAA palyer for Aghaloo O Neils, we won't let the Chelsea stars know.
