FULHAM DEFEAT CHELSEA 2-1 TO END THEIR EPL TITLE HOPES

December 27, 2024

Fulham scored twice in the final 10 minutes to end Chelsea’s 12-game unbeaten run in all competitions with a stunning 2-1 Premier League win at Stamford Bridge.

Substitutes Harry Wilson and Rodrigo Muniz shocked the Blues to secure Fulham’s first away win at their west London rivals since 1979.

Defeat leaves second-placed Chelsea still four points adrift of leaders Liverpool, who have two games in hand over their nearest challengers, starting with the visit of Leicester later yesterday.

Victory lifts Fulham up to eighth, level on points with champions Manchester City, and within just one point of fifth-placed Newcastle to further their European ambitions for next season.
