Twitter Reacts As Chelsea Drop Points Against Burnley
Feb 13, 2017 at 10:35 AM
Chelsea missed a massive opportunity to go 12 points clear at the top of the Premier League after dropping points against Burnley in an exciting 1-1 draw.
The Blues were put into early lead by Pedro as the Spanish winger scored from a counter attack after just seven minutes from the start. However, Burnley’s Robbie Brady’s stunning free-kick evened things up at Turf Moor.
The Sean Dyche’s men put in a hard shift and played relentlessly to break down a resilient Chelsea defense, one of the best in the entire Europe as they’ve let in just 18 goals so far this season.
A point in the crunch game means Chelsea is currently at 60 points and 10 points adrift off second placed Tottenham Hotspur, who have 50 points after 25 games. However, a win for Manchester City on Monday would ensure that Citizens reduce the gap to eight points which could make the league exciting in the coming weeks, especially considering the number of tough games ahead for Chelsea.
Here we look at how the twitter reacted after Chelsea’s 1-1 draw against Burnley.

Chelsea still have to go to Old Trafford, Goodison park, Stoke, West Ham and we still have to play Man City. This title is far from won.

1 – This is the first time that Burnley have won a point from a losing position in the PL since drawing with Chelsea in Feb 2015. Salvaged.

0 – Chelsea failed to land a single shot on target in the second half against Burnley. Frustrated.
