Another moment of the individual brilliance – this time from the tireless cucurella – saves Chelsea a surprise result, although they only needed one point to move across the city.
There was also the strange sight of the extraordinary, dissatisfied, dissatisfied Palmer, which was replaced in all competitions in all competitions in the second half.
Palmer might have shared Enzo Fernandez, who also sent a shot against the side networks after he had broken through for a promising opportunity.
Chelsea devices
Manager Enzo Maresca will be relieved that his players will be over his former team, and Chelsea will be in action next if you visit the second -placed arsenal in the league next Sunday (GMT at 1.30 p.m.).
Leicester will try to revive her poor offer to avoid relegation if she hosted Manchester United – Manager Ruud van Nistelroy’s former United – on the same day at 7 p.m.
