Chelsea vs Southend Highlights Video

Chelsea 1 - 1 Southend United
31' Salomon Kalou Goal 1 - 0
90' 1 - 1 Goal Peter Clarke
League One minnows Southend stunned Chelsea with a stoppage-time equaliser to earn a deserved 1-1 draw and a third-round replay.

Salomon Kalou's first-half goal looked to have earned Chelsea a place in the next round until Peter Clarke headed an equaliser from close range in the 90th minute.

Chelsea had dominated the game but paid for a host of squandered chances by allowing an unmarked Clarke to beat Carlo Cudicini with a close-range header.

It was just reward for the Shrimpers who valiantly kept out Chelsea's wave of attacks in a pulsating second half.

But Chelsea's need for a first-class finisher was further underlined after an afternoon when they failed to kill off their lowly opponents.
