Play by play

<b>FULL-TIME. Newcastle 1-1 Chelsea. </b> A thoroughly enjoyable game of football, though not for the champions. That's four points from their last possible 15 and Chelsea are now two points behind United at the top of the table. Really good performance from Newcastle, especially their defenders who held on resolutely at the end. Enrique was immense and Carroll had a great game, but Ancelotti will be left wondering what else he can do after finishing the game with five forwards. That's all here
- 93'
No is the answer, it's all over.
- 93'
Newcastle free-kick and will there be one last chance for the home side?
- 93'
Shepherded out by Simpson and it's a Magpies' goal-kick.
- 92'
But Chelsea have it back with Ivanovic and are moving forward at pace. Genuinely end-to-end!
- 92'
Newcastle break now...
- 91'
Malouda playing more centrally now, releases Anelka down the left but Routledge forces him out of play and it's a Newcastle throw-in.
- 90'
Nailbiting stuff, this is a fantastic end to the game!
- 90'
Three minutes of stoppage time to play.

- 89'
Great defending AGAIN from Enrique to prevent Sturridge from getting a cross in.
- 88'
But here come the Magpies again as Chelsea try to regroup - they have five forwards on the pitch now really. Surely one of Sturridge, Drogba, Anelka, Malouda or Kalou will be able to break the Magpies' resistance?
- 87'
Cleared out and Anelka does well to take the ball out of defence.
- 87'
Ranger again finds himself advancing into space and he has won a corner.
- 86'
Ranger tiptoes through the middle of the Chelsea defence but after leaving Cole and Alex like statues, Ivanovic runs back to tackle.
- 85'
Taken short and the ball eventually comes to Sturridge - who has come on for Mikel, but the striker drags his shot wide and the Magpies can breathe a sigh of relief.
- 84'

Ramires fouled and Chelsea have a free-kick.

<i>Stats: The Last 10 minutes possession stats see Chelsea with 82% and Newcastle with 18%. </i>
- 83'
Campbell rises highest but his header is a bit of a looper. Routledge then gets another bite at the cherry but the cross is straight into Cech's hands.
- 82'
Ivanovic heads it out for another corner, from the right this time. Guthrie to deliver.
- 81'
Newcastle corner after an excellent run by Gutierrez.
- 80'
Kalou penalised for a foul on Krul but I think the Magpies goalkeeper was a tad fortunate there.
- 80'
Newcastle really hanging on.
- 79'
His inital effort from close range was saved by Krul but he was right in front of goal with an empty net and crashed the ball into the side-netting. It was a tight angle but it was also an open goal!
