Mason Mount’s second-half penalty earned Chelsea a 1-1 draw at Southampton as Thomas Tuchel remained unbeaten in charge of the west London club.
The struggling Saints, came into the game having lost a club-record six top-flight games in a row, opened the scoring against the run of play through on-loan Liverpool forward Takumi Minamino’s strike just past the half-hour mark.
The visitors drew level early in the second period when Mount both won and scored a penalty to keep his side fourth in the Premier League.
