Chelsea secured a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Stamford Bridge, ensuring the Premier League relegation fight will go down to the final day of the season. Goals from Enzo Fernández and Andrey Santos put the hosts in control, before Richarlison pulled one back for Spurs with 16 minutes remaining. The result leaves Tottenham needing at least a point from their final match against Everton to guarantee survival.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou expressed frustration at his side's defensive lapses, saying: 'We created the first chance to score with Tel, it was a big save from Sanchez, then we conceded one great goal, because Enzo Fernandez we could do something better. We lost a stupid goal to concede the second goal, but before the second goal we created a big, big chance.' He remained optimistic about the final day, adding: 'We are alive. We are in the right spirit. We have all the qualities to achieve our target.'
The defeat leaves Spurs with the joint-worst home record in the division ahead of their crucial clash with Everton. A draw would be enough to keep them up, while a loss could see them relegated if other results go against them. West Ham, who are three points adrift of safety, will be hoping for a Tottenham defeat to stay alive.
Elsewhere, Arsenal were confirmed as Premier League champions after Manchester City could only draw at Bournemouth, ending Pep Guardiola's hopes of a treble. The final day fixtures include Tottenham v Everton, West Ham v Leeds, and several other matches with implications for European qualification.
