At 18:30 Lithuanian time, the last two matches of the 11th round of the English "Premier" league took place. It was a highly intriguing match at Stamford Bridge stadium, where London's Chelsea clashed with Manchester United. The "Red Devils" extended their streak of failures in the opponents' stadium and lost with a score of 0-1. Jose Mourinho's game plan in these matches was clear - to hold defensively and try to punish the opponents on counterattacks. However, this did not happen - the "Blues" played confidently both in attack and defense. From the very beginning of the match, Chelsea spent more time with the ball, but the playing style of both teams was quite similar - high passes towards the opponents' penalty area. After an intense first half, there were no goals at Stamford Bridge, and the score remained 0-0. In the second half, Chelsea's team eventually managed to break through the opponents' defense and score the winning goal. In the 55th minute, Alvaro Morata's amazing header left David De Gea no chance. After conceding the goal, Man Utd had to forget about defense, and there was more action on Chelsea's side of the field. Both teams had good opportunities in the remaining time. Morata had two more good chances to score in the final minutes of the match, but the visitors from Manchester could have equalized the score. Marouane Fellaini, who appeared active after coming on as a substitute, played well in the midfield. However, Chelsea managed to hold on in the final minutes of the match and secured an important victory. Chelsea remains in fourth place, but reduced the gap from second-placed Manchester United to one point, while there is still a significant gap of 9 points from Manchester City. Another real football drama took place at another stadium, where Liverpool's Everton finally ended their streak of failures by beating Watford 3-2. "Everton" were losing 2-0, but sensationally scored three goals from the 67th to the 90th minute and took the lead. The end of the match was dramatic - it lasted until the 101st minute because a penalty kick was awarded, but it was unsuccessfully taken by Tom Cleverley, and the points were shared. After the victory, Everton climbed out of the relegation zone to a safe 15th position, with only two points separating them from West Ham in 18th place.
