Chelsea 2-2 Nottingham Forest: Steve Cooper's side take significant step towards Premier League safety with vital point at Stamford Bridge, as Raheem Sterling and Taiwo Awoniyi both score twice

Just how crucial a point this will be for Nottingham Forest will be determined over the coming fortnight as they came from behind against Chelsea in a thrilling game that swung back and forth to get a draw, thanks to a brace from Taiwo Awoniyi.

Two goals in the space of seven-half minutes for Raheem Sterling seemed to have set Chelsea on their way to a first home win under Frank Lampard since his return but Awoniyi’s headed equaliser after his header earlier had put Forest ahead, ensured that Steve Cooper’s side would end the day three points clear of the drop, after Leeds’s lunchtime draw against Newcastle.
