#2 Flop: Jorginho

Jorginho could not dominate the midfield and set the tempo of the game as he so normally does. The Italian looked to move the ball quickly many times in the game but was not accurate enough in his passes, which is really unlike him.

Some of his passing was sloppy, especially in the second half. The midfielder also picked up a needless yellow card when he brought down Maddison after getting completely beaten by the Englishman.


#1 Hit: Antonio Rudiger

There was only gonna be one man at the number one position. It was a night to remember for Rudiger. The defender was really solid in the first half, understanding the game and also being strong in the tackle. He looked to bring the ball out of defence as well. He was sloppy with his passes at times but was strong against the likes of Vardy and then Iheanacho later.

But it was at the other end where Rudiger stamped his authority and won Chelsea the point. Frank Lampard's men haven't been good while attacking set-plays but Antonio Rüdiger did his best to soothe the manager’s concerns.

It is a rare sight to see a defender score a brace and that's what the German did. He scored the first goal just after the half-time and met Mount's delivery for the second to score a looping header from 12 yards out which went into the top corner.
