Leicester 1-1



Independent:

Danny Drinkwater cancels out Cesc Fabregas penalty

Chelsea 1 Leicester City 1

Matt Gatward

This was always going to be a match where events on the pitch would be kicked into touch by the subplots, reflections on the season that was - spectacular for Leicester City, woeful for Chelsea - and the intrigue surrounding how the next campaign will unfold.

Not so much action but celebration, introspection and speculation in equal healthy measure.

The celebration belonged to Leicester, of course, as they rescued a deserved point through Danny Drinkwater’s long-range strike which cancelled out Cesc Fabregas’ penalty and stopped them picking up just their fourth defeat of the season. But it was about what had come before, the visiting fans in the Shed End were rightly in fine voice throughout, celebrating their amazing title triumph. “Champione, champione” was never far from their lips.

The introspection belonged to Chelsea. Such was the utter decimation of the cub in the early part of the campaign, they did well to recover to a mid-table finish and owed that to the calming influence of Guus Hiddink who sailed the club back into calmer waters following the violent early-season lurching under Jose Mourinho. But the mood dipped again at the Bridge following Leicester’s equaliser.

The speculation surrounded John Terry and the new contract offer he is chewing over that involves him taking on a “different role” at the club. It was another Terry love-in at the Bridge - the 26th minute marking a prolonged show of support for the captain, reciprocated by the defender, sat on the Chelsea bench serving his suspension.


On a sun-soaked afternoon this end-of-season, sing-along allowed the outgoing champions to pay their respects to the new Premier League winners and the end-of-term, holiday’s-a-coming feel was very much in the air. Claudio Ranieri, formerly of Chelsea, and his players were given a guard of honour at the start and the home fans’ applause of Leicester’s incredible achievement was warm and heartfelt. Both sets of fans stood to applaud Leicester during the first half.

What a difference in atmosphere both on the pitch and off compared to the previous encounter at this ground. The last visitors were Spurs on that bitter evening that ended Tottenham’s title hopes and gave Chelsea a modicum of joy to cling to.

Chelsea started the match in better fashion, with Pedro, taking his turn to don the club facemask, bending a shot just wide of Kasper Schmeichel’s far post after cutting inside Danny Simpson. Jamie Vardy flashed a shot wide at the other end, then went down after toeing the ball past Thibaut Courtois only to appeal half-heartedly (one feels it may have been more vociferous had there been more hanging on the result).

Chelsea tested Schmeichel twice more before the break: Fabregas’s drive was saved then Willian’s shot was punched clear after a 1-2 with Fabregas. Pedro then poked home following a Willian cross but was half a yard offside.

Leicester, who swapped Demarai Gray and Andy King for Jeff Schlupp and Shinji Okazaki at the break, started the second half stronger than they had finished the first but Chelsea took the lead in the 66th minute when Eden Hazard dribbled into the box from the left. The ball broke to young Tammy Abraham, on a substitute, whose blocked effort fell to Nemanja Matic. Schlupp bought his dummied shot, went to ground and caught the Serb as he broke into the box. Fabregas rolled home the penalty.

Leicester’s victory over Chelsea back in mid-December — which was Mourinho’s final match in charge of the Blues - was for many the moment when the Foxes became credible title-challengers but they never quite looked like winning here today. Few could bemoan their equaliser though, or the man who got it: Drinkwater firing in from 25 yards on 82 minutes after he was given a little too much time. Courtois probably should have saved it - but no matter.

After the lap of appreciation on the pitch and an emotional speech by Terry all that remained was to wonder if Leicester will make a better job of defending their title next term compared to Chelsea did this. It’s hard to imagine they will make a worse go of it.

Danny Drinkwater’s late goal earns champions Leicester a point at Chelsea

Chelsea 1 - 1 Leicester

Dominic Fifield at Stamford Bridge

Roman Abramovich had been waiting for Claudio Ranieri on Leicester City’s arrival at this stadium, the oligarch seeking out the first manager he had sacked as Chelsea’s owner to offer an embrace and warm congratulations on a job well done. The Italian has been tickled by the adulation pouring at him from all angles these days and his team completed a season of unprecedented success here with an equaliser worthy of champions.

It was Danny Drinkwater who drew them level eight minutes from time, dispatching a shot from 30 yards which dipped across a diving Thibaut Courtois and into the corner of the net, with few among Chelsea’s fans begrudging the visitors their reward. Ranieri and his team had been applauded on to the pitch by home supporters and players alike, Guus Hiddink and his players forming their guard of honour for the side who had claimed their title with the injured Diego Costa and John Mikel Obi even taking their places in the lineup in civvies. Also present was John Terry but, where the locals were eager to welcome Ranieri back, they feared this might be a farewell to the captain.


Terry, suspended here, is still contemplating the one-year contract extension offered to him in midweek with his delay in signing an indication there is an awkward choice to make. Chinese clubs would offer him more money and longer terms. The fear is his appearance at Sunderland, his 703rd for the club, may prove to have been his last with those in the Shed end duly unveiling a “John Terry, proper Chels” banner before kick-off, and then raising No26 posters in the 26th minute while chorusing the defender’s name. The 35-year-old, watching from the seats behind the home dug-out, eventually stood, applauded and thumped the badge on his training top. These are changing times.

In truth, given everything occurring around the fixture amid a largely celebratory atmosphere – such a contrast from the poison whipped up for Tottenham Hotspur’s critical visit in Chelsea’s previous home game – the football felt rather incidental. The relaxed tempo gave the contest a rather friendly feel at times, for all that Kasper Schmeichel had to excel to preserve parity up to the interval. His save from Willian, diving to his left to push the Brazilian’s attempt away, summed up his form though there were blocks, too, to be mustered to deny Cesc Fàbregas, Bertrand Traoré, Baba Rahman and Pedro.

Not that Chelsea dominated. The champions were just as menacing when exploiting indecision across the hosts’ back-line, Jamie Vardy and Andy King prospering in the space behind Fàbregas and Nemanja Matic. The England forward had burst through on to Riyad Mahrez’s clipped pass midway through the opening half, reaching the loose ball ahead of the advancing Thibaut Courtois only to see his attempt, lifted over the goalkeeper, drift wide.

Shinji Okazaki and Jeffrey Schlupp added extra impetus on their introduction at the interval, the pair combining only for Courtois to claim the Japanese forward’s back-heel. As it was, Schlupp’s impact was felt rather more at the other end. Eden Hazard’s dribble and Wes Morgan’s block on Tammy Abraham’s attempt saw the ball break free to Matic on the edge of the area. The Serb feigned to shoot, luring Schlupp to ground as he sought to block, only for Matic to take a touch round the player and induce the contact. Fàbregas converted from the spot, with Terry on his feet behind the dug-outs in appreciation.

Yet this is a team who have mustered only five league wins at home, in a ground they recently considered such a fortress, and Drinkwater’s leveller felt apt. Chelsea have been pining for the end of the season for some time. Their players massed in the tunnel post-match ready for their lap of appreciation with those in the stands bellowing Terry’s name. He followed the player of the year, Willian, back out into the sunshine. A summer of upheaval awaits.

Man of the match: Danny Drinkwater (Leicester City).

Chelsea 1 Leicester City 1: Tributes to John Terry and Claduio Ranieri as champions old and new play out draw

Matt Law

John Terry choked back the tears during an emotional on-pitch speech, but stopped just short of telling the Chelsea fans what they wanted to hear.

Despite being suspended for Chelsea’s final game of the season, Terry took the microphone during the players’ Stamford Bridge lap of appreciation after a Danny Drinkwater goal had cancelled out a Cesc Fabregas penalty.

As usual, Terry insisted that he wants to stay at Chelsea but did not go as far as saying he will definitely sign the one-year contract extension that includes a pay cut and a reduced playing role, which was put on the table last week.

With Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich watching from his private box, Terry addressed the fans and said: “We all want the same. I've said for a long time I want to finish my career here. I'll be speaking to the club over the next few days. I want to stay, the club knows that, the fans know that. I want to stay.”

Terry had to stop midway through his speech when the Chelsea fans loudly chanted ‘John Terry we want you to stay’ and also said: “On a personal note I'd like to thank everyone. This season has been tough for me, very emotional, so thank you for the support. Chelsea is my life, as it is yours. The best moments of my life have been in this stadium. You've been a big part of that.”


The 35-year-old joined his Chelsea team-mates to form a guard of honour for Premier League champions Leicester City and the Blues’ former manager Claudio Ranieri ahead of kick-off.

In the 26th minute, a section of the Chelsea crowd displayed posters that read ‘John Terry 26’ and the ex-England man received a standing ovation from the home supporters. There was also an enormous banner that said ‘John Terry, Proper Chels’.

From his seat behind interim manager Guus Hiddink and the Chelsea substitutes, Terry rose to acknowledge the tributes and patted his chest to indicate his affection for the fans and the club.

Hiddink refused to speculate whether or not Terry will accept Chelsea’s offer, but the Dutchman believes last week’s talks are a positive sign.

“First of all, I'm happy that they are now in contact and are talking,” said Hiddink. “For me, it's not good to make speculation. It's good when both parties start to talk. Personally, I hope they manage to come to a solution. That is my personal opinion. When they are talking then I mustn't spoil it by starting to speculate.

“He is 35, when people normally say goodbye. But he's physically very fit and mentally very fit, so he can contribute a lot wherever he wants to play.”

Other than attempting to influence Terry’s decision, Chelsea also paid tribute to Ranieri with Abramovich personally congratulating the man he sacked 12 years ago.

Chelsea presented Ranieri with a silver plate to mark his achievement of winning the title and the Italian appeared emotional when he was given a standing ovation by home fans after the final whistle.

“The emotion was at a maximum,” said Ranieri. “There was a fantastic welcome back, a warm welcome back from everybody. I met the owner Roman Abramovich here, and also when I went out all the people – the fans, the Chelsea fans – it was amazing. At the beginning, but also at the end. No tears, no. Come on, man. Every time you want to speak about tears!”


Asked exactly what Abramovich said to him, Ranieri replied: “Welcome to the champions. Very warm.”

Drinkwater made sure Leicester did not end their fairy tale season on a defeat with a stunning 30-yard goal that gave Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois no chance.

Fabregas had earlier given his team the lead from the penalty spot after Nemanja Matic had been fouled in the area by Leicester substitute Jeffrey Schlupp.

Leicester will parade the Premier League trophy through the city on Monday and, of his team’s 10-point margin of victory at the top of the table, Ranieri said: “We were so consistent during the season and the other teams were not, they were going up and down. That was one key for us, one our strengths.


“We played with this kind of mentality, a winning mentality but also to say 'this is the last match, in or out'. Today we wanted to do something and we lost just three matches during the season. That is an amazing achievement.”

And on the prospect of playing in the Champions League next season, Ranieri added: “The Champions League will be a very good experience for all my players. None of them have played in the Champions League.It will be a very good atmosphere with good music. I hope we are readynot just to listen to the music, but to make some music.”

Mail:

Chelsea 1-1 Leicester City: Danny Drinkwater strike secures draw for high-flying Foxes at Stamford Bridge

By MATT BARLOW FOR THE DAILY MAIL

Although not strictly necessary, here was one final example of Leicester's refusal to be beaten this season, crisply delivered by Danny Drinkwater from 30 yards.

Only eight minutes of the campaign remained when Drinkwater collected the ball, nudged it forward and crashed it past Thibaut Courtois into the bottom corner.
It was only his second goal of the campaign and a sweet moment to strike, on the eve of the England squad announcement for Euro 2016.

Cesc Fabregas fired Chelsea ahead with a penalty but Drinkwater ensured the champions would be unbeaten for the last dozen games.
Leicester will climb about the open-top bus for Monday's parade with 81 points, 10 clear of Arsenal in second.

They have lost only three of 38 games in the Premier League and have not failed to score in the competition since a draw against Bournemouth on January 2.
It would have been easy to coast in at Stamford Bridge on a sunny afternoon with a mood of bonhomie far removed from Chelsea's last outing here, against Tottenham.

While that derby was drenched in animosity, this was a mutual appreciation society celebration, starting with an embrace between Claudio Ranieri and Roman Abramovich and ending with John Terry on the pitch with tears in his eyes and a microphone in hand.

Terry, who was thrown in the air by his team-mates and posing for photographs with his wife and children, told fans he wanted to stay.
A one-year offer is on the table and Abramovich wore a broad grin as he looked down on proceedings from his box in the West Stand.
Earlier, the home fans had produced a tribute to their captain in the 26th minute, singing his name and holding placards.

Terry, who was suspended and viewing from a seat behind Guus Hiddink's bench, stood, waved and tapped the badge on his chest. Very little had happened on the pitch by this point.
The JT love-in proved a convenient distraction for the Londoners – they ended up in 10th with 50 points - as did the triumphant return of Ranieri, 12 years after his sacking.
Four sides of the Bridge rose to salute the Leicester boss as he had followed his team through a guard of honour for a presentation made by former Chelsea goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini.


'The emotion was at a maximum,' said Ranieri. 'There was a fantastic welcome back. I met the owner, he said: "Welcome champions". Very warm. It was amazing.'
The away fans sang Eden Hazard's name by way of thanks for the crucial equaliser he scored against Spurs.
During Terry's post-match address, he was busy congratulating Ranieri on his achievement when he said: 'I'm glad Leicester have won it and I'm glad Tottenham haven't.'
As if Mauricio Pochettino's day wasn't bad enough, here were more of those comments which really wind him up.

This draw could not have been further removed from the hostility of Chelsea's previous home game against Spurs, also drawn.
Perhaps the absence of Diego Costa, out with a hamstring injury, helped but the first-half was like a testimonial at times.

Chelsea supporters clapped Christian Fuchs as he trotted across to take a corner. They stood to applaud Riyad Mahrez off when he was replaced, 10 minutes from time.
They did not react furiously when Jamie Vardy tumbled over Courtois, in the first half, or tried a sneaky hand ball in the second.

Vardy was dangerous but could not find a goal to help him beat Harry Kane to the Premier League's Golden Boot.
Kasper Schmeichel was the busier goalkeeper, with a fabulous series of saves before the interval, each more athletic than the one before.
The Dane stood firm at his near-post to block a fierce drive by Fabregas, denied Willian, frustrated Fabregas again and clawed away a shot from Baba Rahman which had taken a deflection and seemed to be swerving towards the top corner.

Pedro Rodriguez did find the net in the first-half, converting a low cross from Willian but it was half-a-yard offside.
Hiddink took the chance to send on a trio of teenagers - Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Tammy Abraham and Fikayo Tomori – and saw his team take the lead when Jeffrey Schlupp's mistimed slide sent Nemanja Matic spinning in the box.
Hiddink's own farewell was eclipsed by others and the Dutchman joked about his inevitable return.

'I'll be back, every now and then,' said Hiddink. 'Not in the limelight, just hidden a bit because I like to help out with the academy boys. It will be very bad for Chelsea if I'm back (as manager) in early December. I have full confidence they will go up, fighting for silverware, in the top four.'
Fabregas sent Schmeichel the wrong way from the spot but the champions produced a flourish.
Drinkwater equalised and Leicester threatened to win it but a draw was an appropriate end to a mild-mannered contest.

Chelsea 1-1 Leicester: Drinkwater on target as champions finish with a draw - 5 things we learned


BY NEIL MCLEMAN

The midfielder cancelled out Cesc Fabregas' first-half penalty at Stamford Bridge as Claudio Ranieri was given a guard of honour at his former club


Danny Drinkwater scored a stunning late equaliser to preserve champions Leicester's record of losing only three games this season – and give a huge reminder to Roy Hodgson.

Claudio Ranieri's return to Stamford Bridge appropriately finished level 12 years to the day of his last match as Chelsea manager.

The Foxes boss was warmly embraced by Roman Abramovich before kick-off and received rapturous applause as he walked through Chelsea's guard of honour . John Terry also joined in the applause – and later Chelsea fans urged the club captain to sign the one-year deal which was offered to him on Friday.

Kasper Schmeichel made four brilliant saves in the first half – the best from Willian – in a first half played in a party atmoshpere.


Chelsea took the lead after 66 minutes through a Cesc Fabregas penalty after ref Craig Pawson adjudged sub Jeffrey Schlupp had brought down Nemanja Matic.

Leicester charged forward and Drinkwater, who will be hoping to be included in England's 23-man Euro 2016 squad tomorrow, picked up a Wes Morgan layoff and lashed his long-range shot past Thibaut Courtois.


Here are five things we learned:


1. Everybody loves Ranieri

Everyone at Stamford Bridge loves Claudio Ranieri.

Exactly 12 years to the day of his last match as Chelsea manager, the Leicester boss returned to Stamford Bridge as a champion.

It was hard to tell which set of fans were more pleased.


2. Nobody loves Tottenham


Chelsea have long not liked their North London rivals.

It is a new feeling for Leicester but they seem to be rather enjoying it.

News of the score from St James' Park added to the afternoon's feel-good factor


3. Champions given guard of honour


Respect for the champions is a great English tradition.

From the pre-match guard of honour through to the whole of Stamford Bridge rising to their feet when Leicester fans sang: Stand Up For The Champions, the feat of the Foxes was recognised and applauded by last season's winners


4. Terry fights back the tears


After 26 minutes, Chelsea fans held up No 26s and sang for their Captain, Leader, Legend.

The club captain stood and returned the applause as his eyes welled-up with emotion.

We await news on his decision on his contract offer


5. Schmeichel stars once again


Kasper Schmeichel could have won Player of the Year.

Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy have rightly won the individual awards this season.

But the Danish goalkeeper has been brilliant and he made four world-class saves in the first half before being beaten from the spot

Chelsea 1 - Leicester 1: Champions finish with a point as Terry possibly waves goodbye

HE STOOD in tears on the pitch as the crowd chanted his name. John Terry that is, not Claudio Ranieri.

By TONY BANKS

It was Chelsea captain Terry's future that dominated every minute of the last game of a dismal campaign at Stamford Bridge - on the day their old manager brought his Premier League champions to his former stomping ground in his moment of triumph.

But it was Terry who sobbed as he addressed the thousands of fans calling for him to stay at the end of the match. He did though, keep Chelsea them guessing about his future in an emotional address on the pitch.

Terry, who sat on the bench suspended for the match itself, took the mic afterwards and insisted he wanted time to consider the new one year contract he has been offered.

The 35 year old, whose new offer, announced on Friday, is considerably less than the £150,000 a week he had been on and is appearance-based, said: "This season has been tough for me, very emotional. Chelsea is my life, as it is yours. The best moments of my life have been in this stadium.


Chelsea's John Terry appears to give an emotional farewell to the Stamford Bridge crowd after the Blues' 1-1 draw with Leicester City in their final game of the season


"We all want the same thing. I've said for a long time I want to finish my career here. I'll be speaking to the club over the next few days. I want to stay, the club knows that, the fans know that. I want to stay."

Terry - who also has lucrative offers from China and the Middle East - stopped short of saying he would stay as several times he choked up and was unable to continue speaking, but did admit the season had been a complete let down, with Chelsea finishing tenth.

He, as owner Roman Abramovich stood smiling and applauding in the stands, added: "This has been a difficult season. We've had some great times in recent years. We've all accepted things have not been good enough, but we'll be back next year and fighting for this title."

Chelsea gave Leicester a guard of honour as they came onto the pitch yesterday, and Ranieri was met in the tunnel with an embrace from Abramovich, the man who sacked him in 2004. He was then presented with a silver plate by his old club, as the crowd stood unanimous and sang his name.

The crowd also sang Terry's name throughout the match - and there was a massive banner reading "John Terry - Proper Chels." In the 26th minute - marking his shirt number - cards were held up by fans pleading for him to stay.

The player - who has been at the club since he was 14 - though appears to want to haggle over the offer, but the word is that Chelsea's figure is more or less take it or leave it.

At the players party last night at the "Under the Bridge" club at Stamford Bridge several events were expected to be staged in his honour - and Terry in any case has his own party at the ground on the pitch today - at no charge from the club. Most of his teammates, according to insiders, expect him to sign and stay, eventually.

As for the match, Kasper Schmeichel made several good saves to keep Chelsea out, but then sub Jeffrey Schlupp broguth down Nemanja Matic and Cesc Fabregas stroked home the penalty.

But that only spurred Leicester into action, as Riyad Mahrez shot straight at Thibaut Courtois. Then Danny Drinkwater picked up a pass from Wes Morgan 30 yards out and crashed a glorious 30 yard onto the corner of the net for the equaliser, with nine minutes left. As befitted an almost charitable occasion, Ranieri was given a standing ovation at the end.

And then, as a tracksuited and emotional Terry led Chelsea's players on a lap of appreciation, he handed out shirts to fans. His teammates gave him the "bumps" as they left the field.


Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Courtois 6; Azpilicueta 6, Cahill 6, Ivanovic 6(Tomori 59 6), Rahman 7; Matic 6, Fabregas 7; Pedro 6 (Loftus-Cheek 53 6), Willian 6, Hazard 6; Traore 6 (Abraham 53 6).

Chelsea 1 Leicester 1: Champions end campaign with a draw after late equaliser

Leicester refused to be beaten as they finished their remarkable season with a 1-1 draw at Chelsea.


Cesc Fabregas's penalty saw Chelsea lead, but their successors as champions responded through Danny Drinkwater's long-range effort eight minutes from time.

Leicester, survivors 12 months ago, finished 10 points clear. Chelsea, their predecessors, ended a miserable campaign in 10th place and with doubt still surrounding the future of captain John Terry.

Owner Roman Abramovich inherited Claudio Ranieri as manager and sacked the Italian in favour of Jose Mourinho in 2004.

Ranieri and Leicester - opponents in the final game of Mourinho's second spell in December - received a guard of honour ahead of the contest, with the past, present and future of Chelsea high on the agenda.

Not least Terry's. The 35-year-old has made 703 appearances since his October 1998 debut and is mulling over the offer of a 12-month contract extension in a "different role".



He was serenaded by Chelsea supporters throughout, acknowledging first half adulation by beating the left side of his chest, over his heart and the club crest which adorned his t-shirt.

Terry lifted the Premier League trophy 12 months ago but was suspended for interim boss Guus Hiddink's final match in charge.

Both sets of supporters taunted Tottenham as visiting fans declared Eden Hazard as "one of our own".

The Chelsea playmaker scored the goal 13 days ago which ended Spurs' hopes and handed Leicester the title.

Finishing with a flourish was important to the Foxes, but Chelsea started the stronger.


Willian's appeal for handball against Christian Fuchs was dismissed and Pedro shot wide across goal, before Jamie Vardy fired wide at the other end.

Riyad Mahrez next played in Vardy. The striker, expected to be named in the England squad on Monday, beat Thibaut Courtois to the ball, but could only loop it wide.

Demarai Gray had a deflected effort and another saved by Courtois, before Kasper Schmeichel was called into action.

The Denmark goalkeeper saved well from Fabregas at his near post and then repelled a Willian shot.

Ranieri was continually gesticulating to his charges, keen for a win on his former stomping ground.

Chelsea had the lion's share of possession, but that has not stopped Leicester this season.


Danny Simpson flashed a shot wide on the break, but Chelsea countered.

Hazard slalomed into the Leicester box and passed to substitute Tammy Abraham, whose attempt to turn and shoot was blocked by Wes Morgan.

Nemanja Matic picked up the loose ball and surged forwards, but half-time substitute Jeff Schlupp mis-timed his tackle and a penalty was awarded.

Replays suggested there was minimal contact. Fabregas sent Schmeichel the wrong way.


Terry was a lone figure behind the dugout who stood up to applaud the goal. He appeared emotional, again.

Abraham and Ruben Loftus-Cheek were joined on the field by debutant Fikayo Tomori as Chelsea looked to the future under Antonio Conte. Terry was left in no doubt the fans' feelings on whether he should be part of it.

Mahrez shot straight at Courtois, who was beaten when Ngolo Kante laid the ball over to Drinkwater.

It was a fine strike from 25 yards as Leicester avoided a fourth loss of the season.
