Over the weekend, the London "Chelsea" team, who had previously crushed "Stoke" 4-0 on the road, took a step back - on Wednesday, Rafael Benitez's team failed to beat "Southampton" in front of their own fans.
In the postponed English Premier League match of the 17th round, the "Blues" wasted a two-goal lead and had to settle for a 2-2 draw with the rivals occupying the fifteenth place in the table.
At halftime, the hosts went to rest in a good mood thanks to precise strikes from Demba Ba and Eden Hazard, but in the second half of the meeting at "Stamford Bridge" stadium, to the chagrin of the gathered fans, Rickie Lambert and Jason Puncheon defeated Petr Cech.
Chelsea ranks third in the standings, trailing the leading Manchester teams by thirteen and six points respectively.
