In the English "Premier League", the last 27th round match was played on a late Monday evening. The "West Ham" footballers hosted the players from London's top-ranked "Chelsea" at home. Antonio Conte's players did not have an easy time, but they managed to secure another important victory with a score of 2-1. In the first half, the visitors from London took the lead in the 25th minute of the match through Eden Hazard. The "Blues" organized a quick counterattack, during which Pedro made a great pass forward to the sprinting Belgian, who skillfully shot the ball past the goalkeeper to put the visitors ahead. No more goals were scored in the remaining time of the first half, but there was a fierce battle on every inch of the field. In the second half, the "Hammers" did not intend to give up and played actively in the opponents' half. However, in the 50th minute, Diego Costa made the visitors' life easier - left unmarked after a set-piece, the striker sent the ball into the opponents' goal. Even after conceding two goals, "West Ham" did not raise the white flag and continued to try to change the result of the match. In the 92nd minute, Manuel Lanzini reduced the deficit, but "Chelsea" no longer had time to try to equalize. "Chelsea" added their 66th point to their tally and have a double-digit advantage of 10 points over their closest pursuers. "West Ham" is in 11th place with 33 points. Result: "West Ham" 1 - 2 "Chelsea" 25' [0 - 1] E. Hazard 50' [0 - 2] D. Costa 90+2' [1 - 2] M. Lanzini League table:
