Chelsea 2 - Swansea 2: Bafetimbi Gomis penalty earns draw after Thibaut Courtois red card
CHELSEA were reduced to 10 men but managed to hold on for a 2-2 draw against Swansea.
Bafetimbi Gomis celebrates equalising from the penalty spot
Chelsea opened the scoring after 23 minutes courtesy of an Oscar free kick.
Swansea hit back six minutes later with a clever finish from new signing Andre Ayew.
But the joy didn't last for the visitors, when a Willian cross from the left deflected in off Federico Fernandez just one minute later.
However, the drama didn't stop there as Thibaut Cortouis was sent off on 51 minutes after a clumsy challenge on Bafetimbi Gomis.
And the striker gratefully stepped up to slot past substitute Asmir Begovic from the penalty spot to level the scores at 2-2.
