Zouma Scores A Late Own Goal As Sheffield Draw Chelsea

Kurt Zouma scores late own goal as Sheffield United come front behind to draw Chelsea 2-2 at Stamford Brgide in the Premier League encounter on Saturday afternoon.  Lampard gave a first Premier League start to Nigerian descent Fikayo Tomori as he replaced Andreas Christensen in the only change from the side that beat Norwich last weekend.Super Eagles target Tammy Abraham put the Blues on 19 minutes, lashing home after Dean Henderson had spilt his initial header from Cesar Azpilicueta’s delivery but Callum Robinson missed a glorious chance to equalise, diverting his diving header wide from close range after Chris Basham’s low cross.Abraham made sure that miss was punished before the break as he took advantage of a shambolic mix-up between John Egan and Jack O’Connell to fire past Henderson for a second time to score his fourth goal in two games.  However, after the restart, Robinson made amends for his earlier miss, guiding home from close range after a clever cut-back from Enda Stevens to give Chris Wilder’s men hope but Abraham almost restored the two-goal cushion with a header but was denied his hat-trick by a smart stop from Henderson.The Blades, however, grew in confidence, with David McGoldrick and Lys Mousset sent on to aid the search for an equaliser. And as the clock ticked towards ninety minutes they got it, with Zouma the unfortunate man to give the Blades a share of the points.
