What were the highlights of Chelsea's 1-1 draw with Leicester?

Unknown 0:08
Problems for Ndidi, and Mounts scores! What a way to mark his home debut! It's Ndidi! And what a way to redeem yourself!
Dave Jones 0:27
From the pain to the pleasure for Wilfred Ndidi's earned his side a point here at Stamford Bridge. James Madison with his man of the match, and both are with Jeff Treves. Wilfred, James, we saw the pictures of you out on the pitch just then. Looking as though you were rueful about how that second half got away. Do you feel you were that close to all three points? Definitely, yeah.
Ashley Cole 0:48
I mean, you see the lads on their knees there because ultimately we're coming away disappointed. Bad chances, myself included. If you come to Stamford Bridge and you play like that in the second half, you have to score the chances you create. I'm sure we'll watch that game back and be disappointed we don't come away with three.
Dave Jones 1:03
Wilfred, what changed? Why do you think you were more dominant in the second half?
Wilfred Ndidi 1:08
I think we actually put the first half aside and then we were asked to actually push up and forget about the one goal they scored and then we just have to react.
Dave Jones 1:21
I think it's fair to say it was a mixed day for you. Tell us about the first goal, one of those horrible moments that happen in football.
Wilfred Ndidi 1:28
It's something I try not to think about, but it still comes up in my head.

How did Ndidi's performance impact the match?

Wilfred Ndidi 1:33
But it's football, I just try to move on.
Dave Jones 1:36
Did you just not know he was there? No, I didn't know. Having said that, you made it up with a fantastic header. That must make you feel better.
Wilfred Ndidi 1:44
It's a mixed feeling, you know. We tried a couple of times in training with Maddis and he told me I was going to score. So he just came and then...
Graeme Souness 1:55
You mentioned it, James. By your standards, how good was the chance you had?
Ashley Cole 1:59
Yeah, massive. I mean, I'm a reflection of last season, talking about last season, myself and my team and stuff and personally. I scored seven goals and that's something I want to improve on. If I'm going to get better and go to that next level, which I know I can, I've got to be putting chances away and I want to be improving on the goal tally. Chances like that don't come around very often. We worked it well and I've got to put it away. I'm still learning. I'm sure I'll keep practising and improving on that part of my game, yeah.
Dave Jones 2:23
Although you only take a point out of the game, Wilfred, what else can you take away from this?
Wilfred Ndidi 2:28
Take the positives and we had a couple of chances. We have to learn. Every game we try to look forward and try to improve and everything. So I think we did very well in the second half and then we take it to the next game.
Ashley Cole 2:43
The reaction of this man was brilliant. When you make a mistake like that in the second minute or whatever it was, to show the character that you showed, to come back and control the game in which you did in that pivot role and to, like you said, make amends with a bullet header, I think he has a lot of praise.

What tactical changes did Leicester make in the second half?

Graeme Souness 2:57
Does it also say much about his character and the ambition of Leicester City? The fact, having scored that fantastic equaliser, he's stood here now still pretty miserable about the first goal.
Ashley Cole 3:06
Exactly. He's not lifting his head up because he's probably thinking about that mistake. But, listen, that's why we're Leicester City. We get round each other and we said at half-time, forget about that. He was excellent after that. He probably doesn't get the praise that he deserves, Wilfred, because he does the part of the game that no-one else wants to do. And I thought he was fantastic after that, so he fully deserves all the credit he's going to get.
Graeme Souness 3:23
Wilfred, you can lift your head high with that second-half performance and that magnificent goal. One last job for you.
Unknown 3:28
The man of the match, it was a close-run thing between the two of you, eventually went this way to James. You do the honors and pass it over to him, please.
Dave Jones 3:35
Thank you, Wilfred. Leicester City players really disappointed that they didn't take all three points here at Stamford Bridge today. Let's just show you the match facts and give you the breakdown of how much it turned around for Leicester City in that second half.
