Christian Pulisic Scores in Chelsea's Wild 2-2 Draw vs. Valencia in UCL

Chelsea's hopes of qualifying from Group H of the 2019/20 UEFA Champions League remain alive after they earned a 2-2 draw against Valencia on Wednesday.

Carlos Soler put the hosts in front in the 40th minute at the Mestalla Stadium, but Mateo Kovacic equalised with his first Chelsea goal. Christian Pulisic joined Kovacic on the scoresheet after VAR confirmed his finish in the second half.

It looked like being enough, especially when Kepa Arrizabalaga denied Dani Parejo from the penalty spot after Jorginho's challenge on left-back Jose Luis Gaya. However, Los Che eventually equalised in freak circumstances when a Daniel Wass cross caught Arrizabalaga out.
