- It was a third straight draw for Chelsea鈥檚 expensively assembled team
LONDON: Jo茫o F茅lix鈥檚 second match for Chelsea went better than his first.
The Portugal forward scored his first goal for the club in a 1-1 draw at West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday on his return from a three-game suspension following a sending-off on his debut a month ago.
F茅lix guided home a volley off a cross from another new signing, Enzo Fernandez, in the 16th minute only for Emerson Palmieri 鈥� a former Chelsea player 鈥� to equalize in the 28th.
It was a third straight draw for Chelsea鈥檚 expensively assembled team, which are languishing in midtable in what increasingly appears a forlorn bid to qualify for the Champions League.
In an action-packed finale, West Ham had a goal by Tomas Soucek disallowed for an offside in the buildup and Chelsea had appeals for a penalty waved away after Soucek appeared to handle the ball when blocking Conor Gallagher鈥檚 shot.
