But Chelsea was unable to muster the cutting edge required to break down stubborn Newcastle and fell to Hayden’s header with just 20 seconds left in stoppage-time. Miguel Almiron opened up Chelsea down the right flank and Allan Saint-Maximin met the cross with a header that looped over. Chelsea remained vulnerable at the back and Federico Fernandez headed wastefully over from a Jonjo Shelvey free-kick. Willian squandered a good opportunity from a Chelsea counter early in the second half when the Brazilian dragged wide from the edge of the area. Emerson fired just wide with an angled drive and in the fourth minute of stoppage-time Chelsea paid for their profligacy.
