CHELSEA keeper Robert Sanchez produced a calamitous moment to gift Declan Rice a goal in their 2-2 draw with Arsenal on Saturday evening.
Cole Palmer had put the Blues in front from the penalty spot at Stamford Bridge, before Mykhailo Mudryk’s freak goal doubled the hosts advantage.

Arsenal seemed utterly out of sorts, but they were then handed a lifeline with 13 minutes remaining.
Sanchez, 25, aimlessly passed the ball into no man’s land as Rice burst onto it and whipped a superb effort into the empty net.
It was a brilliant finish but a truly astonishing error from the former Brighton shot-stopper.
Co-commentator Gary Neville described the keeper’s action as a “moment of madness”.
And it ultimately cost Chelsea two points as Arsenal came roaring back to equalise through Leandro Trossard.
This led to furious fans slamming Sanchez on social media.
One said: “What is Sanchez doing there???”
Another replied: “So poor from Sanchez there. You cannot make such mistakes in games like these ah.”

A third responded: “Sanchez, why?”
A fourth added: “Sanchez is so questionable ffs.”
And a fifth said: “Get Sanchez out fr he’s so bang average.”
Spaniard Sanchez joined Chelsea from Brighton for £25million in the summer as Edouard Mendy left for Saudi Arabia and Kepa Arrizabalaga went out on loan to Real Madrid.
He had been replaced by Jason Steele as the Seagulls’ No1 prior to his move to Stamford Bridge.
