Thiago Silva scored the 1^st goal in the match in the 11^th minute after Conor Gallagher’s assist, but Jayden Bogle netted in the 32^nd minute after Gustavo Hamer’s assist to even the result.

Noni Madueke scored in the 66^th minute to secure Chelsea’s lead for a 2^nd time after Cole Palmer’s assist but the Blues failed to keep it as Oliver McBurnie scored in the extra time after Cameron Archer’s assist to even the result for a 2^nd time as the last-placed EPL club avoided defeat against the team that beat Manchester United 4-3 a few days ago.

Sheffield United remain in the 20^th place in the Premier League with 16 points after 31 games as the Blades have 3 draws and 1 defeat in their last 4 matches.

Chelsea are in 9th place with 44 points after 30 games as the Blues failed to beat another relegation zone club, as what happened against Burnley in the past weekend.
