Soccerstarz - David Luiz Figurine (Chelsea)


David Luiz Moreira Marinho, known as David Luiz, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Chelsea in the Premier League. Primarily a central defender, he can also be deployed as a left back.

After starting out at Vitoria, he moved to Benfica at the age of 19, remaining with the club five seasons (three complete). He joined Chelsea in January 2011, winning the Champions League and the FA Cup in the following season.

On 5 February 2012, in a league home fixture against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge, Luiz put Chelsea ahead 3-0 in the 50th minute after his header was deflected by Rio Ferdinand, following a Juan Mata free kick. The game ended with a 3-3 draw. On the 25th, through a curled shot, he opened the score against Bolton Wanderers (3-0, home).

On 14 March, Chelsea faced S.S.C. Napoli in the Champions League's round-of-16, following a 1-3 loss at the Stadio San Paolo: Luiz made a stunning performance to help his team win the tie with a 4-1 extra time win, being subsequently chosen by UEFA as the "Man of the match", an accolade he also received in the first leg of the quarterfinals against former team Benfica (1-0 away win). However, after leaving the pitch in the FA Cup semifinals against Tottenham Hotspur with a muscular injury, it was announced that he would miss both of the Champions League semifinals encounters against FC Barcelona, and the domestic cup final; he played, however, in the Champions League final - John Terry was also suspended for the match - appearing the full 120 minutes and converting his penalty shootout attempt as the Blues won it 4-3.

On 22 September 2012, Luiz signed a new five-year contract with Chelsea.
