Stoke 0-2 Chelsea: Mark Hughes frustrated by early goal

Stoke manager Mark Hughes says he was "frustrated" his side conceded so early in the 2-0 home defeat by Premier League leaders Chelsea.

The Blues went in front after only two minutes through John Terry's header, and Cesc Fabregas doubled the advantage with a scuffed finish in the 78th minute.

Chelsea moved three points clear of Manchester City at the top of the table, while Stoke have now conceded at least one goal in each of their last 11 league games - the longest run without a clean sheet in the competition this season.
