Chelsea ended a run of six consecutive Premier League defeats Saturday with a 1-1 draw at Anfield, where Enzo Fernandez's goal canceled out a strike from Ryan Gravenberch and left Liverpool unable to claim all three points in front of a restless home crowd.

The result snapped what had been a damaging stretch for Chelsea, who had lost six straight league matches heading into the fixture. A draw at one of the toughest venues in English football represents a meaningful, if modest, shift in form for the London club.

Liverpool, for their part, were held at home in a match BBC Sport described as playing out before "a restless Anfield," suggesting the crowd grew impatient as Chelsea absorbed pressure and found their equalizer. Gravenberch had given the hosts the lead, but Fernandez's response ensured the points were shared.

The draw keeps Chelsea's season in a complicated position after such a prolonged poor run, while Liverpool will want to move on quickly with matches remaining in the top-four race.
