Chelsea stole a dramatic 2-1 victory at Stamford Bridge after Stoke City had looked on course for a memorable Premier League success.
The Blues headed into Saturday's encounter off the back of their top-flight humbling at Manchester United, and their title hopes seemed set for yet another blow.
Scolari's charges dominated possession throughout the game but struggled to create clear-cut chances, as the home fans' growing frustration became apparent.
And, as the Potters gained confidence after the break, Delap strode forward to latch onto new signing James Beattie's through ball and lift over goalkeeper Petr Cech.
However, substitute Juliano Belletti restored parity on 88 minutes before Frank Lampard, making his 400th appearance for Chelsea, lashed home deep into injury-time to send the remaining home supporters beside themselves.
