FT
FULL-TIME! Chelsea's blushes are spared as they score three in the second half to rescue a point at West Brom!

GOAL! West Brom 3-3 Chelsea (Abraham): Chelsea have levelled! Right at the death! Johnstone sees Werner's shot late and he can only push it into the path of Abraham who taps it into an empty net!

90'
Chelsea continue to knock on the door but West Brom are holding firm, although they can't get out at the moment. FIVE minutes will be added on!
88'
Frustration for Werner - and Chelsea - as he doesn't get a good connection on his shot and it's a comfortable save for Johnstone.
87'
Chelsea have had 90 per cent of possession in the last 10 minutes!
85'
Chelsea remain patient, but they only have five minutes to rescue this. A defeat will heap the pressure on Lampard. And now Ajayi makes an inch-perfect tackle on Werner inside the penalty area!
84'
West Brom win a free-kick on the left, which Philips takes. It's deep, very deep, and Caballero sees it over his head for a goal-kick.
82'
Kante tries to go it alone as he rides a couple of challenges but is eventually crowded out inside the West Brom penalty area.
80'
West Brom have almost everyone behind the ball and their defence is dropping increasingly - worryingly - deep.
79'
Chelsea deal with a West Brom corner well, but they need another goal and time is running out. Just over 10 minutes to play.

75'
Just wide! Sawyers almost restores West Brom's two-goal lead with an effort from 25 yards that just drifts wide of Caballero's far post.
74'
West Brom sub: Diangana makes way for Matthew Philips, as Bilic desperately tries to hold on for three points.

Chelsea have some more defensive work to do now as West Brom force a corner. Pereira's delivery is headed clear by Abraham.
68'
Chelsea may have found the net in the second period, but they're not creating anywhere close to the number of opportunities they did in the first half.
66'
West Brom sub: There will be no hat-trick for Robinson tonight as he makes way for Robson-Kanu.
