Revenge takes multiple forms...could this be one of them? :D :D (Todays Sun)
PENALTY hero Pepe Reina’s prized Porsche lies a burnt-out wreck — after raiders stole it during his Champions League triumph.
Thieves looted the Liverpool goalie’s home as he saved two Chelsea spot kicks to book the Kop’s place in the final of the European Cup.
Reina, 24, returned from Anfield at 12.45am yesterday following post-match celebrations to find his £900,000 home in Liverpool’s Woolton area ransacked.
Among the haul was the £100,000 Porsche Cayenne, jewellery, a Bang & Olufsen entertainment system and personal documents.
His car was found burnt out in the city’s West Derby area at 6.30am.
The Spaniard’s house, which he shares with wife Yolanda and daughter Grecia, three months, was empty during the raid.
Cops confirmed the robbery took place between 7pm on Tuesday — as Reina prepared to face Chelsea in the crunch evening kick-off — and his early-hours return.
A spokesman said: “We’re appealing for information.”
A Liverpool insider said: “Pepe’s upset someone could be so cruel while he was giving everything to get the team to the final. He’s too upset to talk.”
Pal Julian Moss said: “Pepe was up all night. He’s had no sleep because of it all.”
Reina is the latest in a string of Liverpool players targeted by burglars — some also during Champions League games.
The Merseyside home of fellow goalie Jerzy Dudek was robbed in June 2006.
Last October, thieves broke into the homes of striker Peter Crouch and defender Daniel Agger as both took on Galatasaray.
Loan ace Sinama Pongolle was also burgled.
