Chelsea's Premier League title hopes suffered a huge blow on Wednesday evening against Brighton.

The Blues were 1-0 up for the majority of the match, but they surrendered their advantage in stoppage-time.

Brighton substitute Danny Welbeck grabbed a priceless and dramatic equaliser for Brighton with a fantastic header from Marc Cucurella's cross into the penalty area.

The leap from the former Arsenal man was hugely impressive and all Edouard Mendy could do was watch the ball fly over his head and ripple the back of the net.

Check out the dramatic goal, which is Brighton's first ever at Stamford Bridge, here...

Absolute scenes under the lights at Stamford Bridge!

Romelu Lukaku had given Chelsea the lead in the first half with a well-placed header of his own, the goal eventually given after a VAR review for an alleged foul by the Belgian striker on Neal Maupay.

The Blues couldn't capitalise on their advantage, though, and it's fair to say that Brighton were actually the better side on the night overall.
