Chelsea snatch victory despite Baba Rahman blunder

English side Chelsea won a difficult match 2-1 against Southampton on Sunday despite the howler by the Blues's Ghanaian defender Baba Rahman that gifted the home side the lead.

Chelsea moved up to 11th after coming back from a goal down to beat Southampton courtesy of a Branislav Ivanovic header.

Shane Long headed high for the home side but atoned when he pounced on a Baba Rahman blunder before clipping a shot over keeper Thibaut Courtois.

Diego Costa volleyed wide for Chelsea, but the visitors equalised when a Cesc Fabregas cross crept in.

Chelsea finished strongly and Ivanovic headed in from a Willian corner.
