Chelsea rallied with two late goals to salvage a 2-2 draw at Newcastle. Just three days after losing to Championship side Sheffield Wednesday in the Capital One Cup, Newcastle took a shock 2-0 lead by the hour mark. Ayoze Perez buried a shot on the half volley shortly before half-time, and Georginio Wijnaldum later doubled the advantage from a header following a corner kick. Ramires started the comeback with a thunderous strike in the 79th minute, and Willian tied it from a curling free kick three minutes from time. Chelsea came close to taking all three points, forcing Tim Krul to make some late saves for Newcastle, but ultimately the champions could not find a winner.
