Chelsea v. Tottenham Hotspur

No score after 15 minutes.  Remember that Tottenham must win to keep their title hopes alive.  If they draw or lose, Leicester City will win the title.

  2. And now, in the 43d minute, Spurs scores again!

    Chelsea 0 - 2 Spurs

    Leicester is going to have to win this thing themselves. Chelsea isn't helping them at all.

  3. Halftime:

    Chelsea 0 - 2 Spurs

    If this result holds, the title will still be up for grabs.

    I think this is the best half of soccer I've ever seen from Spurs.

    This could really go either way -- both teams chasing the game up and down the field. Fantastic stuff.

  10. And after six minutes of stoppage time, and about three more fights, IT IS ALL OVER!

    Chelsea 2 - 2 Spurs

    LEICESTER CITY, WHO WERE 5000 TO 1 UNDERDOGS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF ENGLISH FOOTBALL!

    Unbelievable. No wonder we love sports so much.

  11. Leicester's manager, by the way, used to manage Chelsea. So the Chelsea fans were very happy for him. Plus they hate Spurs.

  12. Just to be clear: Leicester City has been playing soccer for 132 years. Until today, they had never been the champions of England.

  13. This was a violent, nasty game with some absolutely spectacular play. I don't think I've ever seen angrier soccer players than I saw tonight. It was fantastic.

  15. Today, in Munich, in the semi-finals of the Champions' League, Bayern Munich beat Atletico Madrid 2-1. Since Atletico Madrid won the first leg (at home) by 1 to 0, the aggregate score was 2-2. The tie-breaker is away goals, and Atletico Madrid had one away goal, while Bayern Munich had none. So Atletico Madrid moves on to the European Cup Final.
