Chelsea were held to a 2-2 draw by Qarabag FK in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, November 5, 2025. Despite ending their three-match away losing streak, Softfootball understands that the result felt more like a defeat among the fans, many of whom took to social media to vent their frustration over the team's inconsistency and Maresca's tactical choices.
The Blues had taken an early lead through Estevo's fine strike in the 16th minute, but Qarabag hit back through Leandro Andrade and Marko Jankovic to take a 2-1 advantage before halftime. Alejandro Garnacho equalized after the break, yet Chelsea's inability to find a winner despite being heavy favourites to get all three points left supporters bitterly disappointed.
