Lukas Nmecha hailed Leeds United's belief in their 2-2 draw with Chelsea as they fight to retain their Premier League status.
After going 2-0 down at Stamford Bridge, Leeds salvaged a point, with Nmecha halving the deficit from the penalty spot before he assisted Noah Okafor's equaliser.
Cole Palmer, who teed up Joao Pedro's opener and scored from the spot, then missed from inside the six-yard box in stoppage time as Leeds held on for a potentially vital point in the relegation battle.
Nmecha scored his sixth Premier League goal of the season (20th appearance), while he has both scored and assisted in a match for the first time on the180th senior league appearance of his career.
Leeds avoided defeat having been two goals behind in a Premier League away game for the first time since March 2022 (won 3-2 against Wolves), while Chelsea last failed to win from two goals ahead in the competition in October 2023 (2-2 against Arsenal).
The point saw Daniel Farke's side move above Tottenham into 15th.
"It's amazing. In the first half, I don't feel like we really got close," Nmecha told TNT Sports.

"They were really good in midfield, overloading areas and we tried to press them over the pitch and they have really good players, found good solutions, but we kept going and got our rewards.
"I'm confident on penalties, and I'm just pleased that we got it. To get that last goal from Noah [Okafor] just showed our hard work.
"We pressed them and just tried to choke them out. It worked, and a point here is very respectable and we're in a fight to stay in the league and we're doing a good job.
"I've never been at a club quite like this with the fans, you can hear them now. It's an honour to play for them.
"I think we've had that belief from the beginning of the season, even when results weren't going our way. We're a good group and really proud of the boys today."
