London: Fabio Quagliarella scored a late equalizer as Juventus came from two goals down to draw 2-2 with defending champion Chelsea in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The Italy forward's 80th-minute goal came just six minutes after coming off the bench, completing the Italian champions' comeback after falling behind to a quickfire double from Oscar in the first half of the Group H match.

The Brazilian playmaker marked his first start for Chelsea with long-range goals in a two-minute span just after the half-hour mark, the first deflecting off Leonardo Bonucci into the corner of the net and the second a superb curler from the edge of the box.
