2015-16 Barclays Premier League Wednesday May 11,2016




Norwich City Vs Watford
Norwich City beat Watford 4-2

Norwich were relegated to the Championship despite a thumping victory over Watford at Carrow Road.
  • Norwich have been relegated from the Premier League for the fourth time - only Crystal Palace have been relegated as many times
  • Dieumerci Mbokani is Norwich's top scorer this season with seven goals, with Nathan Redmond one behind on six
  • Troy Deeney has provided an assist for Odion Ighalo seven times this season, a league high along with Dele Alli to Harry Kane for Tottenham


Sunderland Vs Everton
Sunderland beat Everton 3-0

Goal Scorers - Patrick van Aanholt (38) and Lamine Kone(42 and 55)

Sunderland sealed their Premier League safety and relegated Norwich and local rivals Newcastle with a comprehensive victory over Everton.
Defender Lamine Kone struck twice from close range after Patrick van Aanholt scored with a 25-yard free-kick that was misjudged by keeper Joel Robles.
Victory capped an impressive revival by Sam Allardyce's side, who have lost only two of their past 13 games.

  • Sunderland have extended their Premier League stay to 10 consecutive seasons, last playing outside the top flight in 2006-07
  • Sunderland were in the relegation zone for 237 days this season but have survived; Aston Villa will have been in the relegation zone 233 days by the end of the season
  • The Black Cats have scored four goals directly from free-kicks in the Premier League this season, joint highest with Chelsea and West Ham
  • This was the first time that two Sunderland defenders have scored in the same game since December 2013 (John O'Shea and Phil Bardsley v Chelsea).
  • Everton have conceded three goals in back-to-back Premier League games for the first time since November 2009
  • Sunderland have named the same starting XI for the last seven games, something they had never done before in the Premier League
  • Everton's Gareth Barry has now made more starts (572) than any other Premier League player, surpassing goalkeeper David James



Liverpool Vs Chelsea
The Match ended in a 1-1 draw

Goal Scorers
For Chelsea - Eden Hazard(32)
For Liverpool -  Christian Benteke(90+2)

Christian Benteke's late header cancelled out Eden Hazard's brilliant solo goal as Liverpool kept alive their slim hopes of a top-six league finish.

  • 6 of Christian Benteke's 9 Premier League goals for Liverpool have been as a substitute - more than any other player has managed this season in the league.
  • Liverpool have scored in their past 13 Premier League fixtures.
  • Chelsea have kept just one clean sheet in their past 12 Premier League meetings with Liverpool.
  • Benteke's late goal means Chelsea are winless in three Premier League games for the first time in either of Guus Hiddink's spells at the club
