London :Chelsea were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley in English Premier League at Stamford Bridge. The current table toppers were shocked by the 79th minute equaliser from Matej Vydra.
Kai Havertz scored in 33 minutes from a cross from Reece James. Havertz scored a header from James’s cross, the lone goal that was separating the two sides. Nick Pope made some great saves to keep the scoreline in check.
Although, the home fans were disappointed when Matej scored the equalizer when Jay Rodriguez nodded a cross on Matej’s path and scored past the opposition.
“Of course I’m disappointed. If we played this game 100 times, we’d win 99 times. Today we didn’t win it. The second goal would have decided it. It’s always possible you miss one ball, one cross, and this can happen,” Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel said after the game.
“It’s our fault. We should have scored. We created so many chances.”
“You have the opponent where you want to have them. You create so many chances. We let them believe it was possible to steal a point by pure luck and that’s what happened.
“This is not the first game like this and won’t be the last. I was impressed by the performance, the attitude, the quality. It’s football, it was against us today.”
