Eden Hazard reveals what he said to Daniel Sturridge after Liverpool striker’s equaliser against Chelsea

Eden Hazard and Daniel Sturridge both scored stunning goals for the second time in a matter of days as Chelsea and Liverpool drew 1-1 at Stamford Bridge.

Hazard, who had scored the winner between the two sides at Anfield in midweek, looked to have given Chelsea the win and ended Liverpool’s unbeaten Premier League run.

But substitute Sturridge came up with a moment of brilliance in the closing moments to rescue a point.

The pair were seen in conversation at full time and appeared to share a joke, having briefly played together at Chelsea before Sturridge’s exit.

And BT Sport’s Des Kelly revealed Hazard told Sturridge to make sure he repeats his heroics against title rivals Manchester City next weekend.’

Hazard also later told BBC Sport: “I said to him the goal wasn’t bad, to be fair.

“He scored twice. One Wednesday, one today like me. Maybe he try to be like me.

“But no he is a great, great player. I had a chance to play with him a bit at Chelsea.

“And I know he is a fantastic player. He had a lot of injuries in the last few years but when he is on the pitch he can create goals like this.

“I am happy for him but not happy for Chelsea.”
