  1. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Corner to Swansea. Near post number again? 

  2. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Four minutes of stoppage time as John Terry appeals a free-kick awarded to Swansea. Getting a bit frantic now. If Jefferson Montero was still on, I reckon Swansea would be ahead here. Still time. 

  3. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Diego Costa reactsReuters

    Diego Costa wants a foul after being clipped near the box by Ashley Williams but referee Michael Oliver is not interested. Diego takes it really calmly as usual! 

  4. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Swansea substitute Eder is a big old lad but keeps giving away free-kicks since coming on. Andre Ayew is giving Cesar Azpilicueta some lip after the Spaniard hangs onto the ball for too long but they are friends again soon afterwards. 

  5. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Sweet turn and break by Eden Hazard, who feeds Radamel Falcao but the Chelsea striker drags his shot a touch and Lukasz Fabianski saves low to his right. 

  6. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Five minutes to go plus stoppages. The game is starting to open up as the crowd hope for something special. Swansea won't have many better chances to beat the champions. 

  7. 'Being at Chelsea might help Falcao'

    In the couple of games Radamel Falcao has played, he hasn’t really looked like scoring. When you watch Falcao up close his movement is exceptional. I feel last season he was in a struggling Manchester United side. At Chelsea he has a few more South American players around him, he's in London, feeling a bit more loved, it might help him."

  8. SUBSTITUTION

    Eder already proving a handful for John Terry. Willian makes way for Radamel Falcao, who rekindles his striking days at Atletico Madrid where he partnered Diego Costa up front. 

  9. SUBSTITUTION

    Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Radamel Falcao is readying himself for his competitive Chelsea debut. Ten minutes or so to make a name for himself at Stamford Bridge?

  10. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Swansea's Andre Ayew has already played his part today as he seeks to add to his opening goal for the visitors but his shot is straight at Asmir Begovic. 

  11. SUBSTITUTION

    Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Swansea goalscorer Bafetimbi Gomis is replaced by debutant striker Eder. The 27-year-old arrived from Portuguese side Braga last month. 

  12. Get Involved

    Chelsea keeping the ball now, they'll be more than happy with a point from this position. Three would be a great achievement. 

  14. SUBSTITUTION

    Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Cesc Fabregas is off and replace by Kurt Zouma to add bite to the midfield.

  15. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Eden Hazard reactsGetty Images

    As soon as I type that last entry, Chelsea are away and Eden Hazard takes on left-back Neil Taylor before drawing a near-post save from Lukasz Fabianski. 

  16. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Diego Costa reactsPA

    Chelsea will be doing well to hold onto this. That's not a sentence many would have predicted at the start of the game today. 

  17. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Swansea's Wayne Routledge is straight into it as he is played in by Jonjo Shelvey. He cuts inside from the left but his shot is well saved by Asmir Begovic. 

  18. SUBSTITUTION

    Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Can I remind you of an earlier post discussing the merits of long-haul pre-season tours? See 17:11. Jefferson Montero is on the floor with an injury and he's off which will be a huge relief to Chelsea. He's been the best player on the field. Wayne Routledge is on. 

  19. DISALLOWED GOAL

    Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Bafetimbi Gomis has the ball in the back of the net after a lovely passing move in the build-up to Neil Taylor's cross. Alas, the Swansea striker is offside. 

  20. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Chelsea move forward, we haven't said that much this half, and win a free-kick which Branislav Ivanovic heads over. Some breathing space for the hosts, but Jefferson Montero is on the ball again....
