Chelsea came back to overcome a 1-0 deficit with two wonder strikes from Frank Lampard and Juan Mata. Lampard scored his 197th goal for Chelsea. Ba was substitued minutes before half-time because of a broken nose. He broke his nose when attempting a header but instead he came in contact with Coloccini's foot. Newcastle equalized with a rebound goal from new boy Moussa Sissoko. Then at the 89th minute a drag back from Santon and Sissoko was there at the edge of the box to slot home in the right hand corner. This win lifts Pardews men away from the relegation zones.
