The Magpies pressed for a second goal, with Almiron and Joelinton’s attempts lacking accuracy in front of the goal. In a surprising turn, Raheem Sterling equalized for the London visitors with a powerful shot into the top corner from a free-kick.
Chelsea’s Nick Pope made a glaring mistake in a ball pass, but Gallagher failed to capitalize, sending a weak shot wide.
