Fabregas lays match ball at Paris tributes

Chelsea and Spain footballer Cesc Fabregas recently paid his respects to the victims of last week's terrorist attacks in Paris by laying his match ball among tributes at the French embassy in Madrid.

The midfielder signed and appeared to write a note on the ball used during Spain's 2-0 win over England in Friday's international friendly.

On the same night in Paris, terrorists killed 129 people in six separate locations, including the Stade de France and the Bataclan theatre, across the city.

Over the weekend, Fabregas laid the ball among flowers and candles at the embassy to pay tribute to the victims of the tragedy.

He'd signed the ball and appeared to write a small note.
