While a historic record hung in the balance at Stamford Bridge, the final whistle left one fan base in celebration and the other in open revolt. What went wrong for the hosts? Yankee Scores reports….

Manchester United inch closer to securing a champion league spot following a 1-0 win over at Stamford Bridge.

However, Chelsea’s hopes of playing champions league football are in tatters. It is their fourth Premier League defeat in a row for only the second time this century.

They have failed to find the back of the net in any of their defeats and have not scored since 4 March.

It is a poor record for Liam Rosenior who was brought in to steady the ship after the exit of Italian coach, Enzo Maresca.

Dominance Without Delivery

The Blues were unlucky not to get a goal after hitting the woodwork three times through Estevao, who went off with his second hamstring injury in a month after 16 minutes, Liam Delap and Wesley Fofana.

The hosts had more possession, shots, and shots on target. Their expected goals (xG) was also higher.

But it was Manchester United who left the pitch smiling, thanks to Cunha’s first-time strike.

Fernandes Chases History

Fernandes again proved he is one of the best creators in chief in Europe with his cut-back expertly converted by the Brazilian.

It was Fernandes’ 18th assist in the league this season, two short of equaling the Thiery Henry and Kevin De Bryune joint Premier League record.

Boos and Chants

Manchester United fans celebrated only a second league win at Stamford Bridge since 2002. They booed their former player Alejandro Garnacho on his first appearance against his old club.

Chelsea supporters frustrated by the bad patch chanted “we want our Chelsea back”
