Oscar, Ramires and David Luiz all started as Chelsea were stunned by a second half comeback by Southampton to force a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League.
The Brazilian trio all enjoyed a rare start together as Demba Ba’s third goal in as many games and a Eden Hazard strike sent Chelsea racing into a 2-0 lead before Southampton’s Ricky Lambert and Jason Puncheon completed a comeback.
Rafa Benitez’s side were unruffled for much of the game but crumbled as soon as Lambert pulled Southampton back into the game.
Ba opened the scoring with a acrobatic volley from Oscar’s cross before Hazard doubled Chelsea’s lead just before half time with a neat sidefooted finish.
Lambert struck back for the Saints at the hour mark with a header from a Nathaniel Clyne cross before Puncheon lashed a superb volley past Petr Cech and into the net for the equaliser.
