Once again QPR are on my game of the week post. But this time they are on the winning side with a shock victory over in form Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea had the first chance of the game when Victor Moses made space for himself and his deflected cross fell to David Luiz who shot into the ground and bounced on top of the net. Chelsea kept on coming but failed to break down the QPR defence. At Half time QPR were looking the better side and wanted to capitalise on that. However Chelsea thought that they had a breakthrough when Frank Lampard powered a shot into the corner but was instantly flagged offside.
However with 12 minutes remaining a corner was delivered and David Luiz only half cleared it as it fell for Adel Taarabt cushioned a pass to Shaun Wright-Phillips who smahed the ball into the corner and left Chelsea with no chance. The former Chelsea man didn't celebrate but the fans did that for him.
To be honest, QPR deserved that win more than Chelsea and with Harry Houdini's help maybe they can escape relegation again. The other results were: West Brom 1-2 Fulham, Wigan 0-4 Manchester United, West Ham 2-1 Norwich, Tottenham 3-1 Reading, Swansea 2-2 Aston Villa, Manchester City 3-0 Stoke, Southampton 1-1 Arsenal, Liverpool 3-0 Sunderland, Newcastle 1-2 Everton.
Not much change in the Premier League table other than Everton move up to 5th at the expense of Arsenal and Liverpool have moved up to 8th at the expense of Swansea and Stoke.
