Chelsea manager Frank Lampard survived a scare at Cobham Training Ground following a tackle from club captain Cesar Azpilicueta. Frank Lampard, the 41-year-old former English combative midfielder was almost completely wiped out by the Spanish defender during a training session on the eve of the Bayern Munich encounter. On a fortunate note for the West Londoners, neither Frank Lampard not Cesar Azpilicueta were caused any harm in the aftermath of the incident.

Chelsea vs Bayern Munich: Frank Lampard gets tackled by Cesar Azpilicueta

Frank Lampard decided to take part in a Rondo session with the rest of his squad but was clattered by Cesar Azpilicueta as soon moments after touching the ball. The 30-year-old wing-back seemed over-eager to win the ball back but it could have ended up much worse for Frank Lampard due to the momentum behind the sliding tackle. However, Frank Lampard managed to get out of the way to avoid any serious damage and save Cesar Azpilicueta his blushes just ahead of a massive Champions League encounter against Bayern Munich.  

Surely Frank Lampard would have been involved in more than a few of those tackles during his playing days but post-retirement, it can be a quite risky proposition for the Chelsea legend to take part in these training exercises especially with a spirited tackler like Cesar Azpilicueta. However, having won the Champions League back in 2012 and beating Bayern Munich in the final of the competition Lampard was surely up and ready for the game against the Bavarians.
