Javi Gracia suffered his first defeat in the Premier League as Leeds United boss as Wesley Fofana's header ensure Chelsea of all three points. The Whites looked defensively sound for large parts of the tie but were woeful in the final third.
It took them until the hour mark to register a shot on target, but Georginio Rutter's shot from eight yards out deflected off Kalidou Koulibaly and rolled into the hands of Kepa Arrizabalaga. In fact, the best chance of the game for Leeds fell to their goalkeeper who went up for a stoppage-time corner, with the Blues shotstopper gathering with ease.
A late turnaround at Arsenal saw the league leaders overturn a 2-0 deficit against Bournemouth to keep Leeds out of the relegation zone. Whites supporters were left ruing their end product in the final third.
