Liverpool's perfect start to Premier League season ends with 1-1 draw at Chelsea
Daniel Sturridge's late stunner saved a vital point for Liverpool
Chelsea ended Liverpool's perfect start to the Premier League season as the title contenders drew 1-1 at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Liverpool had won all six of their previous league matches this term but, having lost to Chelsea in the League Cup in midweek, they fell behind on Saturday when Eden Hazard gave the west London club a 25th-minute lead.
But Daniel Sturridge's brilliant long-range strike a minute from full-time preserved Liverpool's unbeaten league run.
