Crystal Palace were desperately unlucky for opening goal with Gary Cahill pulling up with hamstring injury, 3-2 Chelsea won the match
'Kepa made a great save and Kurt made a great tackle. In those last moments it was nerve-wracking for us.'
There were positives for Chelsea, including Abraham finding the net for the first time since January 11.
Kepa's stoppage-time save also showed his worth after he was criticised for not doing more to keep out Wilfried Zaha's strike, which brought the game back to 2-1.
Lampard added: 'I mentioned Tammy scoring and his confidence. When you are at the end of the pitch, goalkeepers probably even more so, confidence is huge.
'He should be boosted, his team-mates should be boosted because he at the end of the day saved us as a group two points. That is what Kepa's job is and what he is there for.
'I am really pleased for him and we need that to be a top team - goalkeepers making those sort of saves at times to pull you through and he did it.'
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta was fuming after Jamie Vardy was not sent off
Mikel Arteta claimed Jamie Vardy should not have been on the pitch to deny ten-man Arsenal victory over Leicester with a late equaliser at the Emirates.
Arsenal head coach Arteta insisted Vardy should have been dismissed for kicking Shkodran Mustafi in the head as he fell following a first-half challenge between the pair.
Vardy escaped punishment, with the incident seemingly deemed accidental by referee Chris Kavanagh and not reviewed by VAR. Arteta then saw his own striker, Eddie Nketiah, sent off in the 75th minute for a slightly mistimed challenge on James Justin following a lengthy Stockley Park review and pitchside monitor check from Kavanagh, just four minutes after coming off the bench.
To compound the situation for Arteta and Arsenal Vardy equalised with just six minutes left to cancel out Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's first-half opener.
Arteta said: 'The red card, he [Eddie] cannot see the player and didn't want to hurt anybody. You have to understand he is a young kid.
'It can be a red card but Leicester have to play for ten men after 42 minutes. For one challenge between the 40 and 45 minutes.
'If we review incidents of that type we review them all. It has to be something equal for everybody because it changes the game for everybody. If Eddie is a red card for sure the other is a red card
Rodgers responded, saying: 'I haven't seen it [the Vardy incident] to be honest and I didn't even think about looking at it afterwards.'
On Nketiah's dismissal, Rodgers said: 'He was just stretching but it ended up being a horrific challenge. It deserved a red card.
'It was certainly not intentional but it was dangerous on the stretch. To go in studs up, you see the contact on the knee, the referee made the right decision.'
Arsenal dominated the first half and Arteta said: 'I'm extremely proud of the team. The way we played, how dominant we were, we should have gone three or four nil up and killed the game. That's what you have to do when you play good opposition.'
Despite fighting back to salvage a draw, Leicester lost third place to Chelsea though the point took them four points clear of fifth-placed Manchester United.
Rodgers said: 'We showed enough quality in the second half to win but it could be a very important point.' The Formal Manchester united Midfielder who Returned to become a Catholic Priest. (Philip Patrick Stephen Mulyrne)
