EPL: Chelsea slip up, City take advantage and Reds earn points with last-minute winner

Chelsea entered the Premier League’s matchweek 15 atop the table but a 3-2 loss to West Ham at Olympic Stadium has seen them drop to third.

It was the Blues who led 2-1 at half-time, but a goal to Jarrod Bowen in the 56th minute levelled proceedings before a freak goal from Arthur Masuaku at the death stole the three points in an influential derby result.

With Chelsea dropping points, Manchester City comfortably rolled into first place with a 3-1 win over Watford at Vicarage Road.

A brace from Bernardo Silva plus an early goal from Raheem Sterling was enough for Pep Guardiola’s side in a typical dominant performance.

While Liverpool also were winners, it wasn’t as easy for them with Jurgen Klopp’s side leaving it to the last minute to snatch a 1-0 win against Wolves, with Divock Origi proving the difference in the 94th minute.
