Everton twice came from behind to deny leaders Chelsea a home win at Stamford Bridge.

However, Yakubu made it 2-2 at close range on the stroke of half-time. And, although Drogba volleyed home to restore Chelsea’s advantage, Louis Saha levelled the scores again with a header four minutes later.
Chelsea held onto top spot with 37 points, three ahead of second-placed Manchester United, while Everton moved to 17 points in 15th place, three points above the bottom three.
