The Blues' 20-year-old striker, filling in for Diego Costa, netted in the first half, though the visitors rallied to claim a deserved point at Stamford Bridge on Saturday

Mame Biram Diouf struck late to denyΒ Chelsea victory at Stamford Bridge asΒ Stoke City claimed a 1-1 draw, though the Blues remain unbeaten in the Premier League under Guus Hiddink.

Youngster Bertrand Traore was given a shot in the first-team due to a slight injury picked up by Diego Costa, and repaid his manager's faith with a stunning goal, turning on the edge of the box and rifling an effort into the top corner.


Chelsea had opportunities to kill off the match but were undone by Diouf's late header, though the Blues have now gone 12 matches without defeat under Hiddink - the longest such streak under a new manager in Premier League history.
