Lesley Ugochukwu's 82nd-minute equaliser salvaged a 2-2 draw for Chelsea against Wrexham on Wednesday in Enzo Maresca's first game as the Blues new head coach.
League One side Wrexham threatened to cause an upset when recovering from falling behind to Christopher Nkunku's 35th-minute strike to lead midway through the second half through goals from Luke Bolton and Jack Marriott.
But Ugochukwu ensured Chelsea avoided an embarrassing defeat with a smart finish in front of 32,724 fans at Levi's Stadium.
The game flared up as early as the third minute when Levi Colwill reacted to a late challenge from James McClean.
