On the evening of May 7 (Hanoi time), Chelsea welcomed Wolves at Stamford Bridge in round 36 English Premier League. The students of coach Thomas Tuchel were unable to bring joy on the launch day of new owner Todd Boehly, who is about to complete the procedure to buy back “The Blues” for a total value of more than 4 billion pounds.
Chelsea pulled themselves into the race for the top 4 in the Premier League
After the first 45 minutes of stalemate, the second half saw Romelu Lukaku shine with a brace in just 2 minutes to take Chelsea to a 2-0 lead. However, the subjective psychology in defense made “The Blues” pay the price with 2 goals conceded in the 79th minute and 90+7 minute, through which there was only 1 point.
It was the 3rd match in a row Chelsea did not win in the No. 1 league in the foggy country. If the current performance continues, the Stamford Bridge team can be knocked out of the top 4. “The Blues” have 67 points, 4 points more than Arsenal, but coach Tuchel’s teachers and students have played more than 1 game.
If the “Gunners” beat Leeds struggling for relegation at Emirates’ home on the evening of May 8, which is likely to happen, the gap between the two teams will be narrowed to only 1 point. By then, coach Mikel Arteta’s teachers and students might even be able to surpass their opponents in the same city.

In addition, coach Antonio Conte’s Tottenham is also capable of surpassing Chelsea because the gap between the two teams is 5 points. If “The Blues” stumble in the remaining two rounds, coach Conte and his students can completely knock the old team out of the top 4.
Few people would have thought that Chelsea had led the Premier League in many rounds until they lost to West Ham on December 4 last year. But now, “The Blues” are even facing a battle to qualify for next season’s Champions League after losing breath before the two leading teams Man City and Liverpool.
