On the way back from the break, Chelsea reacted. In the sixth minute, Raheem Sterling received a low cross from Chalobah and sent it to the back of the net to tie the game. In the sequence, Loftus-Cheek pulled a counterattack and played for Sterling in the area. The Englishman cleared the scoring and sent a kick into the corner.
