@samftbl10: United arrived at Stamford Bridge as the only team still capable of delaying Chelsea’s coronation. Sir Alex Ferguson’s side had finished third the previous season, 18 points behind Mourinho’s champions, but were now Chelsea’s closest challengers. A victory would have kept the title race mathematically alive, while Chelsea needed only to avoid defeat before celebrating in front of their own supporters. Chelsea did far more than that. Goals from William Gallas, Joe Cole and Ricardo Carvalho sealed the title with two matches remaining and confirmed Chelsea as Premier League champions for the second successive season. The victory also matched Chelsea’s own record of 29 league wins in a single Premier League campaign. #chelseavsmanutd #barclayspremierleague #ktbffh #premierleaguefootball #joecole
