Liverpool close in on Premier League title
\nIn a two-faced match, Liverpool overcame Tottenham to offer themselves the shock of this 22nd day of the Premier League. The Brazilian
Firmino scored the only goal of the match. Solid leader of the Premier League, Liverpool won this Saturday afternoon at
Hart Lane Stadium facing
Tottenham (0-1) in the 22nd day of the championship. A victory won with difficulty by
the men of Jürgen Klopp who suffered the wrath of Spurs especially at the end of the game. The winning goal was scored in the 37th minute by Roberto Firmino with a splendid cross shot from the left after enormous work from the Egyptian
Mohamed Salah. With this victory, the Reds take 16 points ahead of second in the standings,
Leicester who lost to Southampton (0-1). \n\nRead also

Leicester lets go, Chelsea continues
\nSecond in the championship, Leicester City was surprised by Southampton at home. Despite the opening score of
Dennis Praet, the Foxes were forced to give up the three points of the match thanks in particular to
Danny Ings unleashed in the second half (1-2). A defeat which could cause Leicester to lose second place in the standings in favor of
Manchester City who challenges Sunday
Aston Villa. \n\nRead also:

French N’Golo Kanté,
Chelsea was merciless against the modest team of
Burnley (3-0). Jorginho (27th), Tammy Abraham (38th) and Callum Hudson-Odoi (49th) were the executioners of coach Sean Dyche's foals who saw nothing but fire during the 90 minutes. With this demonstration of strength, the Blues maintain their fourth place in the standings ahead of Manchester United who lost this Saturday against Norwich City (4-0). Soundly beaten by Manchester City in the League Cup on Tuesday, the Reds Devils seem to have regained their automatism by beating up the red lantern who did not ask for so much. Marcus Rashford (27th, 52nd from the penalty spot), Anthony Martial (54th) and Mason Greenwood (76th) were the authors of the Mancunian goals.\n
