London - Charlie Adam joined the select band of footballers who have scored from inside their own half but finished a loser as Stoke City lost 2-1 at Chelsea on Saturday.
Loic Remy's 62nd-minute effort gave Chelsea victory after Adam had quickly cancelled out Eden Hazard's 39th-minute penalty as Jose Mourinho's side extended their lead in the Premier League to seven points.
It was far from a convincing victory, but with Manchester City not due to face Crystal Palace until Monday, it ensured Chelsea will remain at least six points clear with a game in hand after the latest round of matches.
