Late on Tuesday evening, the first match of the 36th round of the English Premier League took place between the teams of "Chelsea" and "Norwich". The London team secured a victory at home with a minimal margin of 1:0. The only goal of the match was scored in the third minute of added time in the first half by the French player O. Giroud, who sent the ball into the net with a great header. This was already the sixth goal scored by the striker in this season of the English Premier League. This victory helped the London team to distance themselves by four points from their closest pursuers, "Manchester United" and "Leicester" players. At the moment, the Blues are occupying the third place in the league table. However, "Leicester" and "Man Utd" have played one match less at the moment. "Norwich" will no longer be able to fight for a place in the next season to compete in the strongest English league. After this defeat, "Norwich" currently holds the last 20th place.
