Ghana international midfielder Michael Essien watched from the stands as Azerbaijan side Gabala kick out Greek side Panathinaikos from the Uefa Europa League on Thursday night. 

The 32-year-old former AC Milan, Real Madrid and Chelsea midfielder was ruled out of the game as he is en route to recovery from a groin surgery and watched his side eliminated from the competition.
