Not even a month after receiving a hero's welcome from one European soccer giant, Stephen Curry received another. The Golden State Warriors star was at Stamford Bridge in London on Sunday, taking in Chelsea's game against city rival Arsenal.

Curry was a guest of honor at Paris Saint-Germain late last month, receiving a customized shirt from the team and participating in a ceremonial kickoff in the French capital.

Chelsea strikerMichy Batshuayi, wing-back Davide Zappacosta, and defenders Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen were among the players to snap photos with Curry afterward. Even longtime Chelsea captain John Terry, now with Aston Villa, was in attendance for the game and joined in.

Curry was also invited to take a penalty kick -- and he scored after the shot rang the crossbar and dropped in.

From basketball to golf, and now apparently soccer, there seems to be no limit to Curry's sporting prowess.
