In a game that saw a heated and exhilarating atmosphere at the Liberty Stadium, it saw the Blues settled for a 2-2 draw.

Chelsea prior to this game has had a 100% record so far, winning all three of their opening League matches. But a visit to Liberty Stadium halt the winning streak as they had to settle for a draw.

John Terry who twisted his ankle towards the end of the game, though fell to the ground, but still held on as he manages to head out a Swansea attack clear, but he appeared to make sure he landed on one leg after making the clearance.

Antonio Conte is hoping it's not as serious as it appears, as he describes Terry as a warrior and he is not worried about it. Terry face a race against time to be fit for the game against Liverpool on Friday.

SkySport Pundit "Alan Smith" on Tunnel Talk spoke about the situation of Terry's injury saying;

"If it is long-term it's a blow. They've obviously got a couple of centre-halves with Kurt Zouma on the way back and, of course, David Luiz recently signed," he said.

"Those little twisted ankles, they are painful at the time. I did it enough myself and they can calm down in 48 hours or so. They are heavily icing it, I imagine, and hopefully he won't be out for too long.

"He's got it heavily strapped but it's not in a boot which is a bit more of a serious sign. Hopefully it's just a little sprain and not something that's damaged the ligaments too much."

With the draw the Blues currently sits second with 10 points behind Manchester City who have 12 points, four wins out of four league games for City so far.
