Frank Lampard has described Chelsea’s loss to Newcastle as his side’s ‘story of the season’.

The Blues were handed a 0-1 defeat in the fixture after Isaac Hayden powered home a 94th minute header for the Magpies.

The defeat was Chelsea’s eighth of the season and sees them remain in fourth spot in the table with 39 points. They hold a five-point lead over Manchester United who will be in action against leaders Liverpool on Sunday in Anfield.

Chelsea’s loss to Newcastle followed a familiar script with the Blues dominating possession and proceedings at St. James’ Park, only to be undone by a set-piece conversion from the home side.

The visitors created plenty of chances in the fixture but were let down by some poor finishing from their forwards including Tammy Abraham.

See what Lampard had to say about his side’s defeat in the video posted above.
