The champions were held to a draw on the first day of the new premier league season 2015-16 at home to Swansea City and were even denied a penalty in the first half. The blues took lead in the 23rd minute of the match with a free kick from Oscar as Swansea soon equalized with a goal from Ayew. Montero crossed in from the left which was headed on by Gomis, forced a save from Courtois who was unable to stop Ayew who pounced on to the rebound to mark his debut goal in the premier league. The champions were quick to react as they were ahead in the very next minute all thanks to a deflected shot by Willian off Fernandez.

Ayew scoring his debut premier league goal

The champions were happy to take the lead in the first half but had no clue of what they had in store for their second. A flighted ball to Gomis, as he escaped the Chelsea back line with only the keeper left ahead of him and the goal, which eventually forced a challenge from Courtois which resulted in a straight red card. As Courtois was the last man and denying Gomis a goal scoring opportunity, the referee was left with no choice other than showing him a straight red. Begovic was on for Oscar but couldn't stop Swansea equalizing. Gomis converted the penalty which prevented Begovic from being a superstar on debut for Chelsea.

Courtois was sent off at the Bridge

Chelsea brought on their star signing Falcao later on, who was unable to find the net for the blues as it was tough for 10 men to counter attack the Swansea defense. Swansea also had a handful of chances with Gomis and Montero forcing saves from Begovic.

Overall Swansea had a good second half with impressive performances from Montero, Ayew, Gomis and Fabiansk. Chelsea on the other hand, stood strong even with 10 men, unlucky with a penalty denied in the first half, good performances from Hazard, Oscar, Willian and Diego Costa. As its still August, Mourinho would not mind a draw and would look to improve as they head for their crucial fixtures for the 2015-16 season.
