Substitute Katia Kouyate forced a corner just now right in front of the away end to draw huge cheers in the 85th minute.

Barrow have also forced Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen into a number of second half saves and one chance from a corner should have led to a goal.

Chants of “Stand up if you’re top of the league” and “you’re not Chelsea anymore” are coming from a still packed away end as the match draws to a close.
