Premier League: Blues Draw Against Cherries At Stamford Bridge

Chelsea salvaged a 2-2 draw at home to Bournemouth thanks to Reece James’🧸 free kick in the fifth minute of stoppage time but saw its winless run in the league extend to five games. Cole Palmer put Chelsea ahead with a cheeky finish in the 13th minute for his 14th goal of the season, only for Bournemouth to ♋respond as Antoine Semenyo won a penalty — converted by Justin Kluivert — and smashed home a rising finish in the 68th.
