Chelsea 2-2 Bournemouth: James rescues point with stunner as Blues’ winless streak continues

Chelsea’s struggles in the Premier League extended to five games without a win, as Reece James’ stunning last-gasp free-kick salvaged a 2-2 draw against Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues dominated the first half, with Cole Palmer breaking the deadlock with a composed finish.

However, Chelsea squandered several opportunities to extend their lead, with missed chances proving costly.

Bournemouth capitalized on Chelsea’s inefficiency. Justin Kluivert equalized from the penalty spot after a clumsy challenge in the box.

Antoine Semenyo then shocked the home crowd by putting the visitors ahead with a fine strike.

Late into stoppage time, substitute Reece James stepped up to curl a stunning free-kick past Bournemouth’s goalkeeper, rescuing a point for the hosts.
