4Moment of the match
Olivier Giroud started the match but was forced off injured, after scoring two goals that were both ruled out for offside.It looked a serious blow for Giroud as he rolled his ankle upon the turf, and a long-term absence would place further strain on Eden Hazard – who has been playing as a centre forward recently – and Alvaro Morata – who returned from injury against the Eagles.Finding a striker to score goals has been a real issue for Chelsea this season, and an injury to Giroud will do little to ease Maurizio Sarri’s headache.

Kante put in a typically energetic performance, fulfilling all his defensive duties, and he capped it with the winning goal.There has been serious criticism of Kante this season for his inability to perform the role Maurizio Sarri requires of him, but such an all-action performance will have his critics remaining tight-lipped today.Premier League table
