29th round of the English Premier League saw seven matches played, with plenty of goals recorded.
One of the most interesting matches took place between Liverpool's Everton and London's West Ham. The "Hammers" team, currently in the top five of the table, overturned a two-goal deficit and expanded their victory with a 2-3 result.
In the 13th minute, Romelu Lukaku put Everton ahead, but just before the end of the first half, Kevin Mirallas was sent off, giving the visitors from the capital a chance.
However, in the 56th minute, the "Hammers" increased their lead to two goals, and R. Lukaku missed an opportunity to add the final touch in the 69th minute with a missed penalty.
The minutes passed and it seemed that Roberto Martinez's team had the victory guaranteed in this match, but the 78th minute brought back the intrigue with Michail Antonio's accurate shot into the opponent's goal.
Just three minutes later, the score was level, and the goal that secured the victory was scored by Dimitris Payet in the 90th minute. Showing an impressive comeback, the West Ham club climbed to fifth place.
Unfortunately, at the end of the match against Stoke City at home, London's Chelsea suffered a bitter defeat, while Manchester City did not show any mercy to Aston Villa. Other matches ended with victories for Bournemouth and Swansea, while the Southampton-Sunderland match ended in a draw.
In the last match of the evening, Watford faced Leicester City. The only goal of the game was scored by Riyad Mahrez in the 56th minute, leading to a victory for the "Foxes" against the hosts.
