In the same time as Bournemouth – Manchester City, which saw Arsenal’s victory, Chelsea hosted Tottenham for their last home game of the season, marking the end of the 37th round of the Premier League. A London derby with high stakes, as Tottenham had the chance to secure their position with a win or a draw, while Chelsea needed a win to keep their hope alive for a spot in the Europa League. Ultimately, the match ended in favor of the Stamford Bridge residents who secured a victory (2-1) on Tuesday night.
Enzo Fernandez’s long-range strike gave Calum McFarlane’s men the lead first (18th minute, 1-0), before Andrey Santos doubled the score in the second half (67th minute, 2-0). Despite Richarlison narrowing the gap (74th, 2-1), the Spurs couldn’t equalize against their opponents and will have to wait until the final game against Everton to secure their position. On the other hand, Chelsea climbs to the 8th position, two points behind Brighton (7th), who currently qualify for the Europa Conference League.
