Chelsea might be the world champions but they have been distinctively second best in their EFL Cup third round clash away to Lincoln, and find themselves deservedly behind at the break.
The Imps tore into Enzo Maresca's much-changed but very expensively assembled squad from the off, and took the lead in the 42nd minute through Rob Street.
Enzo FernĂĄndez, the most experienced player on the pitch, played a huge role in with, hitting a dreadful pass across his goal that was intercepted by an Ivan Varfolomieiev header.
It fell to Street and the striker made no mistake, slotting past Filip Jörgensen.
It continues a worrying trend for the Blues, who are on the verge of a full-blown crisis following a string of poor results in the last 10 days.
The Blues have since turned it around but what a moment for Lincoln nonetheless!
