Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink: 'We reacted perfectly to get draw

Chelsea interim boss Guus Hiddink says that his team "reacted perfectly" to come from behind to grab a 2-2 draw with West Ham United.

Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink has claimed that his team "reacted perfectly" to come from behind and draw with West Ham United at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

Manuel Lanzini and Andy Carroll gave the Hammers the lead twice in the game, but Cesc Fabregas was responsible for restricting West Ham to a 2-2 draw.

The Spaniard scored on the stroke of half time and slotted home a penalty in the 89th minute after Michail Antonio brought down Ruben Loftus-Cheek inside the box.

"We started well in the first 10 minutes but we then started losing the possession too easily," BBC Sport quotes Hiddink as saying. "We reacted just before half time, especially with the beautiful Cesc Fabregas free kick. In the second half we got caught on the counter, but we reacted perfectly to get the draw.

"This is a very good West Ham side. They are knocking on the door for the top four. I was happy with the late penalty decision. It's difficult for me to make a judgement - I think he was tripped on the line. On the line is part of the box."

Chelsea have not lost a league game since Hiddink took charge in December.
