Match Report
Chelsea were made to settle for a share of the spoils at Stamford Bridge as newly promoted Hull City came from behind twice to snatch a 2-2 draw. The standout moment belonged to Hull, who turned an early deficit into a half-time lead inside a frantic six-minute spell before Chelsea had to dig deep for a point late on.
Morgan Rogers put the hosts ahead inside seven minutes with a well-worked finish, but Hull hit back through Mohamed Belloumi, who levelled in the 28th minute off an awkward bounce before pouncing again in the 34th via a fortunate deflection to put the visitors in front. Joao Pedro restored parity in the 66th minute with a composed left-footed finish, continuing his run of scoring in every game so far, after Cole Palmer carved Hull open down the left.
For Chelsea, it's a second underwhelming league result in a row following last weekend's loss at Arsenal, and Xabi Alonso's side will be frustrated after dominating possession without finding a breakthrough winner. For Hull City, the point extends their unbeaten start to the season and underlines just how dangerous they can be on the counter-attack against top-half opposition.
