Chapter 187: The Scorching Championship Situation

Chapter 187: The Scorching Championship Situation

Now the Premier League title race has become a rivalry between Manchester United and Chelsea.

Chelsea have no European games to play and they were knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester United, so Antonio Conte's side are now focused on the league.

Manchester United fights on multiple fronts, while Chelsea fights on a single front, so in the league, Manchester United can still strongly feel the pressure brought by Chelsea.

This round of the league is played the day before Manchester United, and for Chelsea fans, any Manchester United opponent is the object of their support.

West Bromwich Albion's opener gave Chelsea fans joy and were delighted when United equalised. However, as game time runs shorter, Chelsea fans are starting to look forward to it. After all, even if it is a draw, Manchester United will lose points!

But in the end, Carrick's strike made Chelsea fans excited...

The day after Manchester United's game, the Chelsea league game will begin.

Chelsea are also away from home in this league game, and they will be away to Stoke City.

In fact, Manchester United's side is also very concerned about Chelsea's game, after all, Chelsea has put a lot of pressure on Manchester United this season.

All Manchester United fans who were watching their rivals in the first half were very excited, because at the end of the first half, Chelsea were one goal behind Stoke City!

At half-time, there was already some pessimism in the media about Chelsea's title prospects. If Chelsea can't win this game, even if Chelsea win in direct dialogue between the two sides, it doesn't mean much!

However, United fans were delighted for fifteen minutes as Eden Hazard threatened on the flanks as he dribbled all the way into the box before crossing to the back post before Willian slotted home from inside the box to equalise for Chelsea.

The script for the game appears to be a reference to United's last game, when a corner was headed in by centre-back Gary Cahill in the box to put Chelsea in the 87th minute.

After this round of league games, the pattern of the two teams competing for the title has not changed.

Manchester City, who theoretically still have a chance of competing for the title, are now nine points behind leaders Manchester United and six points behind Chelsea in this round of the league at home to Liverpool.

Manchester City are naturally unwilling to give up their hopes of winning the title, and with ten rounds of the league remaining, they still maintain the chance to compete for the Premier League title.

The match between Manchester City and Liverpool also maintained a 1-1 scoreline, until injury time, Aguero sent a stunning goal to help Manchester City beat Liverpool 2-1!

The top position has not changed since the end of the thirtieth round of the league.

In the 31st round of the league, Manchester United will face Everton at home, although this season Everton is still a strong team in the league, although they have no hope of winning the championship, but any strong team must be fully careful when facing Everton, this is an old team in the Premier League, they are not as good as the traditional top four and the newly rising Manchester City, but they are still very strong compared to other Premier League teams.

They finished seventh in the league with 53 points after 30 league games.

Everton are not to be underestimated, but United fans are confident in their home results and it will be difficult for West Bromwich Albion to make any waves on the road.

Ahead of this game, Chelsea's game will be played a day before Manchester United.

Chelsea host Crystal Palace, a game that should have been a little suspenseful, but the final result was a big surprise!

Crystal Palace were in excellent form on the road, scoring in the opening stages through two blitzes to give Chelsea an early two-goal lead.

Palace then shrank into the box to defend and held their two-goal lead until the 80th minute before Chelsea pulled one back.

However, neither side was able to score again until full-time.

Chelsea were beaten at home by Crystal Palace, and it was a big upset in this round of the league!!

At a crucial stage in the title race, Chelsea lost at home to the underdogs at the bottom of the league! The result was a huge disappointment for Chelsea supporters.

Frank Lampard, who only announced his retirement in February, is now a part-time media commentator, and the Chelsea legend said pessimistically in his column: "Now Chelsea need to look at Manchester United's face, and if Manchester United don't make any big mistakes, this season's Premier League title will belong to Manchester United..."

Manchester United supporters were naturally elated by the result of the Chelsea game, and Chelsea dropped points, which was a great opportunity for Manchester United to pull away from the score.

On 5 April, Manchester United host Everton to challenge!

Speaking at his press conference the day before the game, Everton boss Ronald Koeman also expressed Everton's determination for the game: "I know Manchester United are definitely the ones we see as points to be taken, they need points to distance themselves from second place, I won't comment on the rivalry between Manchester United and Chelsea, we will play at our level away from home. ”

Sure enough, in the game, Everton did take the lead.

Manchester United, who are short of young men, have a headache in the face of Everton's counter-attack.

In the twentieth minute of the game, Everton opened the scoring line.

Anderton led 1-0 to Everton with a 1-0 lead over Everton after Mirallas' cross from the right corner was headed wide by Gillarka, who toed under Smalling's close defence and into the net between De Gea's legs. It was Jajjlka's first league goal in 703 days.

Jagielka was excited to score the goal, while the Manchester United fans were frustrated.

Fortunately, there was still game time, and the United fans immediately adjusted their mentality and cheered for the team again.

United stepped up their attacking efforts and although they created a couple of chances to score in the first half, they were unable to find the back of the net.

Shortly after the start of the second half, the United defence suffered another blow.

In the fifty-third minute of the game, the little monster Lukaku received a cross from Ashley Williams and pressed Smalling's header to score!

0 to 2!!

Manchester United two goals settled!

Now it's the Chelsea fans' turn to be happy, they overturned at home, but Manchester United also stumbled at home...

It looks like Manchester United are also dropping points in this round of the league...

"The situation of the championship is still very anxious!"

On the TV screen, Andy Gray said.
