Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek has admitted that he was surprised by Casemiro's headed equaliser for Manchester United.
The Blues played out a 1-1 Premier League draw against the Red Devils on Saturday, but they could have easily won the game.
The west London giants went 1-0 ahead in the 87th minute of the contest after Jorginho converted a penalty won by Armando Broja.
However, they could not hang on for the victory as Casemiro scored in the 94th minute with a header which beat Kepa Arrizabalaga.
Following the game, Loftus-Cheek was left confused by how the Brazilian managed to find the back of the net from his position.
He said: "It was just one of those games but I thought we had it [the win], we were defending well and then, to be honest, I don't know how Casemiro's got the power on that header to send it up and down. It feels like a defeat."
Chelsea's failure to win the game has seen Newcastle United leapfrog them to the fourth spot after a 2-1 win at Tottenham Hotspur.
The Magpies are currently ahead of the Blues on goal difference, though the latter have a game in hand against Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool.
