Chelsea were held to a 1-1 draw in a thrilling encounter against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on New Year’s Day.

Forest attacked with vigour in the second half and Serge Aurier in the 68th minute controlled the ball on his chest and volleyed home the equaliser.

Chelsea climb above Brighton into eighth but are seven points behind Manchester United in fourth while Forest move above Wolverhampton Wanderers into 18th.
