Chelsea got first win after Lampard’s return
Frank Lampard’s first victory since taking over as interim manager of Chelsea came courtesy of two goals scored in the dying minutes.
Conor Gallagher’s early header gave the Blues the lead, but they lost all four of their Premier League games after Lampard’s return in April.

Despite Bournemouth’s Matias Vina’s equalizer, Benoit Badiashile and Joao Felix scored goals in the final 10 minutes.
With three games left, the Cherries are still in danger of being relegated, while Chelsea are ranked eleventh.
Chelsea were considerably improved, with 21-year-old Noni Madueke posing a special threat on the right flank.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Raheem Sterling were among the five players who had been dropped from the team that had lost to Arsenal 3-1 in their previous match.

Dango Ouattara’s close-range header went over and Vina also missed a chance of getting his second goal early in the second half during Bournemouth’s best period, but with games against Crystal Palace, Manchester United, and Everton still to come, Gary O’Neil’s team still has a good chance of avoiding a quick return to the Championship.
Even though some clubs still have four games left, they are already nine points ahead of the bottom three.
