Scored: Mount 7′ – Ndidi 67′.
For the first time leading Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, coach Frank Lampard was thanked by fans with a large banner in the stands reading: `Welcome home Super Frank`.
Lampard believes in using young midfielder Mason Mount for the number 10 position. He, along with Christian Pulisic and Pedro, support striker Olivier Giroud.
Mount scored his first goal for Chelsea in the Premier League this season.
The home team hit the goal right from the first minute, with Pedro’s shot from a tight angle following a wall strike from Giroud.
High-level pressure from Chelsea confused the away team.
Situation where Mount stole the ball from Ndidi’s feet and scored.
Giroud also impressed with his ability to create walls for his teammates.
At the beginning of the second half, Chelsea continued to press high and pass the ball quickly.
Leicester played more and more excitedly and scored the equalizer in the 67th minute. Maddison took a corner kick for Ndidi to head into a dangerous corner, not giving Kepa a chance to block.
Ndidi (No. 25) scored a header from close range to redeem himself.
The match turned into a double attack after Ndidi’s goal.
The homeowner repeatedly failed passes in the last minutes and almost paid the price.
The draw left Lampard still without a win after three times leading Chelsea.
Lampard’s debut at Stamford Bridge as a player also ended with a score of 1-1 against Newcastle in August 2001.
