Chelsea thought they had taken the lead twice in the early stages against Barcelona on Tuesday.
In a clash of the titans Champions League battle at Stamford Bridge, Enzo Fernández thought he'd given Chelsea the lead after just four minutes.

However, that goal was ruled out for a handball in the build-up and the Argentine midfielder had a second chalked off for offside midway through the first half.
In a twist of fortune, Chelsea took the lead through Jules Kounde's own goal as the Barcelona defender accidentally back-heeled into the net.
After a nervy third review of the night, the goal eventually stood, sparking huge cheers around the Bridge.
