„Liverpool“ club - once again the strongest in England. The failure of „Manchester City“ in the match against London's „Chelsea“ led to the fact that the title of the „Premier“ league traveled to Liverpool earlier.

In addition, „Liverpool“ became the fastest team to secure the title in the history of the „Premier“ league. There are still 7 rounds to play until the end of the championship, but the „reds“ already have the title in their hands.
In the mentioned duel between „Man City“ and „Chelsea“, precise shots from Christian Pulisic and Willian led the latter to victory. Kevin De Bruyne equalized in the second half, but Fernandinho in one of the episodes handled the ball flying towards the goal, followed by a red card and a penalty kick.
„Chelsea“, remaining in fourth place, has a 5-point advantage over the closest pursuers.
