It is the biggest upset of Barclay’s premier league 15-16 season. Chelsea best Newcastle by 5-1 at Stamford Bridge. Newcastle were favorites to win this one keeping their opponent in mind  but Chelsea came out of their drop zone form and presented something else. Newcastle must be furious on losing three points so easily.

Costa opened the scoring in the fifth minute after Willian set him up through a brilliant pass. Shortly the new signing from Barcelona Pedro took advantage of some sloppy passing at the back by Newcastle. Pedro took advantage and with his blistering pace and accurate shot doubled the lead. Even Chelsea fans were also in shock and were extremely surprised the way their team was performing.

Willian scored the third one as this time Costa set him up for a tap in. Fabregas's sublime pass to Pedro set him up for Chelsea's 4th and Pedro's second. Traore's goal was icing on the cake. Townsend although got a consolation for Magpies at the end.

This result has send shockwaves around premier league fans. Chelsea have moved up the table and are at 12th spot and 8 points from top four. Something encouraging for them as they gear up for a good end to the campaign. This result is also good as they face PSG midweek in Champions league round of 16.

Manchester united are back in form. Yes they have once again accomplished what has been their trademark since Sir Alex's departure. United have lost a game. It is no surprise or no wonder or upset since Sunderland were up against a team of their level.

When you are up against a team of same mentality as yours it's not that difficult to play. Some tipped United to cause an upset by beating Sunderland but it couldn't happen. Betting parties surely learned a lesson last night.

The game at stadium of light ended in a 2-1 win for Sunderland as we see United moving past another opportunity to close the gap between top for and themselves. Virtually top for us a distant possibility for Red Devils now.

A set piece massacre resulted in the first goal for W.Khazri as his free kick didn't touch a single player and went straight into the net. Martial equalized the score after Mata's shoot was stopped by the keeper and Martial stepped in right at the moment with a cool finish.

Once again a set piece in the second half resulted in an own goal by De Gea that gave Sunderland the lead which lasted till the end.
