Roundup: Tie With Arsenal Moves Chelsea Closer to League Title; Italian Upset Comes Amid Fan Violence

With a tenacious defensive display, Chelsea held host Arsenal to a 0-0 draw on Sunday and closed in on its first Premier League title in five years. Arsenal had only one shot on target.

Aside from penalty decisions that did not go Chelsea’s way, the only thing that frustrated Coach José Mourinho at Emirates Stadium was a chant from Arsenal fans at the end, “Boring, boring Chelsea.”

Chelsea is 10 points ahead of Manchester City, the defending champion, and Arsenal at the top of the standings with five games to go. Mourinho was quick to remind Arsenal fans after the game that their team has not won the league title since 2004.
