At Bramall Lane, Sheffield United earned a point against a terrible Chelsea team thanks to a stoppage-time goal by Oli McBurnie.

After 11 minutes, Thiago Silva entered a modified defensive lineup for the visiting team and rewarded Mauricio Pochettino’s confidence with a volley from a corner to open the score.

But just after the interval, Jayden Bogle’s accurate effort past Chelsea goalkeeper Dorde Petrovic gave the Blades an equalizer.

Following a ball from Cole Palmer, Noni Madueke cut inside and fired a left-footed effort into the Blades’ net. However, the Blues were unable to hold on, and three minutes into stoppage time, McBurnie secured a draw for the Blades.

Here are MailSport’s match ratings following Chelsea’s 2-2 loss to Sheffield United:

Noni Madueke scored Chelsea’s second in a sub-par Blues performance at Sheffield United

Dorde Petrovic—5—was not put to the test much, but he was unable to save McBurnie’s equalizer in stoppage time or Bogle’s first-half goal.

Axel Disasi (five): In Pochettino’s modified defense, Disasi moved to right-back but was unable to have much of an impact.

After 11 minutes, Thiago Silva (6.5) confirmed why he was chosen over Badiashile by scoring a volley off of Gallagher’s corner.

Trevoh Chalobah (5.5): Consistent in the middle of a shifting defense, he was booked in the first half for a high boot.

Marc Cucurella, a 5.5, was largely trouble-free on the right side of defense up until he was booked for a petty late challenge.

Moises Caicedo – 5 – Struggled throughout, but made a crucial block to deny Brereton Diaz a wonderful chance to equalize.

Enzo Fernandez—6—Another reliable but unspectacular player at the center of the Chelsea squad.

Thiago Silva joined the heart of a changed Blues defence and scored the opener with a volley

Although Cole Palmer set up Madueke’s goal, he was unable to register a point.

Cole Palmer (6.5): Before Chukwuemeka took over, Palmer made another of his signature contributions to the Chelsea team by serving as Madueke’s provider.

Conor Gallagher – 6-In a rare highlight for the Blues star, his corner kick found Silva unmarked in the middle of the box.

Noni Madueke (7.5): The Blues’ top player replaced Mudryk in the offensive line and scored Chelsea’s second goal. Later on, the Ukrainian took over.

Nicolas Jackson, a striker from Senegal, was substituted by Casadei during stoppage time because he was unable to do much up front.

Chukwuemeka (in place of Palmer 74′) – 6 – was brought on in Palmer’s place, but was unable to make much of an impact.
