Reigning English champions Chelsea suffered a shock 1-2 defeat to Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Bakary Sako put Palace in front in the 61st minute, finishing off Yannick Bolasie low cross after initial block by Cesar Azpilicueta, Goal reports.
Chelsea looked to have snatched a point when second half substitute Falcao headed in a Pedro delivery in the 79th minute.
But Palace went ahead two minutes later when Johnson Ward finished off a beautiful link up play between Yannick Bolasie and Sako.
Chelsea has a paltry four points from same number of matches, eight points behind Manchester City who defeated Watford 2-0 at Etihad Stadium earlier on Saturday.
