On September 21, 2013, in a Premier League London derby against Fulham, Obi scored a goal despite his goal drought.
That fateful day when Frank Lampard crossed the ball into the Fulham area was remembered because the midfielder was involved in a corner kick.
After that, John Terry headed the ball over the goal's face, and Obi scored with a half-volley.

The Jose Mourinho-led Chelsea FC ended a four-game losing streak with a 2-0 victory thanks to that goal in the 84th minute.
Eleven years later, he celebrated the goal on his official Instagram account with a video.
