Chelsea Drops Points

Anything can happen in football. Just a couple of days ago, when Manchester United’s comeback from a goal down to beat Arsenal 2-1, many would have expected Chelsea to pull up their socks and win their subsequent two matches to put pressure on the leader.
Emile Heskey struck with an injury-time volley to earn a point for Wigan and left Chelsea’s hopes of winning the Premier League hanging by a thread. The score ended 1-1 at Stamford Bridge.
The title hope may be dashed but not gone. With 5 points adrift from Manchester United and 4 games remaining, Chelsea must win its remaining matches in order to have a slim chance of snatching the Premiership title from the Red Devils.
Mathematically, Manchester United will retain the Premiership crown if they wins the next two games.
