Huddersfield Survive as Chelsea Falter

Huddersfield secured their Premier Leagueatus for next season and severely dented Chelsea’s top-four hopes by battling to a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday. This latest performance of grit and outstanding defensive organisation, plus a famous goal by Laurent Depoitre (50), all-but relegates Swansea City, who need a 10-goal swing on the final day to turn the tables on Southampton. For Chelsea, Marcos Alonso's equaliser (60) wasn't enough to deny the tenacious Terriers, who survived a late onslaught from the Blues, with goalkeeper Jonas Lossl in fine form - including an incredible one-handed save to deny Andreas Christensen.
The result leaves Antonio Conte's men needing Brighton to beat Liverpool at Anfield on the final day for any hope of finishing in the top four.
But this night was all about Huddersfield and the masterful David Wagner, who has kept his side up against the odds and only spent a remarkable eight days in the relegation zone all season despite their minuscule budget.
