Description

Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder said his side are "not day trippers" after they battled back from two goals down to snatch a point at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea were 2-0 up by half-time after striker Tammy Abraham struck twice, but Kurt Zouma's late own goal ensured a draw following Callum Robinson's strike in the first minute of the second half.

The result puts the visitors, who finished second in the Championship last season, into eighth in the Premier League table, one place above Chelsea.

"Three years ago we were bottom of League One and now we have come away from Chelsea with a result," said Wilder. "We are not day trippers getting autographs and collecting shirts."

A spill by United keeper Dean Henderson when under pressure from Christian Pulisic gave Abraham the chance for his first, and a mistake in the United defence allowed the Chelsea striker the opportunity for his second.
