'It doesn't sit well': Joe Cole criticises Hakim Ziyech's unenthusiastic celebration in 1-1 draw at Brighton as Glenn Murray suggests muted reaction affected Chelsea's attitude

Joe Cole could not understand Hakim Ziyech's non-celebration after scoring the opening goal of Chelsea's 1-1 draw at Brighton.

Ziyech was one of the players most widely criticised following Saturday's defeat at Manchester City and the Moroccan, who was making only his eighth league start of the season, had a point to prove at the Amex Stadium.

He gave the visitors the lead against the run of play with a speculative shot from outside the area but barely reacted after hitting the net despite being mobbed by his team-mates.
