Chelsea were on the wrong end of a last-minute equaliser against Sheffield United this afternoon, the Blues come away with a point after holding a two-goal lead.
Chelsea were denied the chance of winning three points at Stamford Bridge after Sheffield United’s last-minute equaliser against the Blues this afternoon.
The west London club had looked relatively comfortable for a large period of the game after academy graduate Tammy Abraham’s double.
The 21-year-old opened the scoring in the 19th minute with this tidy finish.
The Chelsea star extended the side’s lead after pouncing on a defensive error just before the end of the first-half.
Callum Robinson pulled a goal back for the Blades in the 46th minute but it didn’t look as though Chris Wilder’s side would take anything from the game.
That was until the 89th minute, Kurt Zouma turned the ball into the back of his own net after a dangerous cross from Robinson.
Here’s some reaction to the side’s performance, club captain Cesar Azpilicueta was singled out for his display by fans:
Azpi is done for ?♂️?

Pathetic from Chelsea! Can’t defend at all this season is going to be long and embarrassing.
