Chelsea held on for a 3-2 win at Crystal Palace to claim three crucial points in the race for a place in next season's Champions League.
The victory, set up by goals from Olivier Giroud, Christian Pulisic and Tammy Abraham, moved Frank Lampard's side five points in front of fifth-placed Manchester United -- for 48 hours at least.
Chelsea took the lead just six minutes into the game -- but there was a huge slice of fortune. Willian broke towards the box and was tracked by former Chelsea defender Gary Cahill, who suddenly slumped to the ground with an injury.
