Willian (Chelsea) puts a dangerous cross into the box, but the corner is cleared by the first man.
GOAL! Superb work from Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who plays a vital role in the build-up. He squares it to Pedro (Chelsea), who beats Kevin Trapp with a brilliant shot into the right side of the net. 1:1.
Watch GOAL Pedro vs Eintracht Frankfurt

Chelsea will face a strong test on Thursday night when they travel to Commerzbank-Arena for the first leg of the Europa League semi-final against Eintracht Frankfurt. Both teams sit 4th in their respective divisions and both will come into this off the back of two successive draws.
The Eagles are still three points adrift of Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga ladder, in spite of slip-ups against Wolfsburg and Hertha BSC in past two rounds.
The head coach Adi Hutter has reasons to be satisfied with his men’s recent defensive displays as Frankfurt shipped just one goal in past three games across competitions.
The streak began with a 2-0 victory over Portuguese heavyweights Benfica in the return fixture of their Europa League quarter-final tie at Commerzbank-Arena.
