  3. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Swansea have done their homework on corners. They know that Chelsea do not have a player on the posts and Thibaut Courtois, since departed, and Asmir Begovic like to come off their line. So Jonjo Shelvey fires another one at the near post which has the Chelsea goalkeeper scrabbling. 

  4. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    I'm not making this up. Jefferson Montero is again on the attack and drives into the box, checks and fires a shot which is turned over by Asmir Begovic.

  6. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Jefferson Montero, who else, tests Asmir Begovic with a low shot. Swansea aren't settling for a draw here. 

  7. Chelsea 2-2 Swansea

    Replays of that incident show that Willian was the player to play Bafetimbi Gomis onside, and Thibaut Courtois appeared to catch the Swansea striker right on the edge of the penalty area. It was a tight one but the officials looks to have got it spot on.

    GOAL - Chelsea 2-2 Swansea - Gomis

    Bafetimbi has missed a few chances during this game and makes no mistake placing it to Asmir Begovic's left.

    Bafetimbi Gomis is played through, Thibaut Courtois catches him and Michael Oliver is sure of his decision. The Chelsea goalkeeper is off and Oscar is replaced by Asmir Begovic for his Chelsea debut.

  11. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    And an equaliser is tantalisingly close. Jonjo Shelvey whips over a low corner and it hits the near post. Thibaut Courtois was inching out of goal anticipating a deeper cross and looked very nervous as he clawed his way back.

  12. Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    Guess what Jefferson Montero has it once more and wins another corner. 

  13. Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    A subsequent Swansea corner is headed over by Federico Fernandez, who beats John Terry in the air, and has plenty of reasons to get on the scoresheet. 

  14. Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    Gylfi Sigurdsson's free-kick has plenty of fizz but clips off the top of the wall for a corner. That set-piece arrives at the feet of Bafetimbi Gomis, but he is wasteful again. 

  15. Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    Jefferson Montero is on the attack again and draws a foul, about 25 yards out. Interesting. 

  16. Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    Chelsea get us under way. No changes. 

  17. HALF-TIME

  18. No holding back

    Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    If you want an illustration of the tempo of this game, Willian has made 41 sprints in the first half, more than any other player. Memphis Depay was the leading sprinter in Manchester United's win over Tottenham, with 42, and that was in 68 minutes.  

  19. Have some of that!

    Chelsea 2-1 Swansea

    You can't accuse the two teams of serving up a continuation of pre-season. Plenty of action in both boxes.
