Fulham’s success against the Blues ended the Cottagers’ wait for success at Stamford Bridge since winning 2-0 in October 1979.
Former Chelsea shot-stopper believes Robert Sanchez did not cover himself in glory on the visitors’ winning strike in second-half stoppage time, citing the Spaniard’s poor clearance.

“Robert Sanchez looked to hit a massive diagonal and he doesn't hit it properly,” said Schwarzer.
“That enabled Fulham to hit them on the counter and players were caught out of position - the goalkeeper has to look at himself, it was a poor clearance.”
What next for Chelsea?
Maresca’s side return to Premier League action against Ipswich on Monday, December 30.
