| November 14, 2010 By STEVE DOUGLAS AP Sports Writer LONDON(AP) -- The Premier League title race was thrown wide open Sunday thanks to leader Chelsea's shock 3-0 home defeat to Sunderland and Arsenal's hard-fought 2-1 win at Everton. Chelsea's 100 percent home record ended as a solo effort by Nedum Onuoha and second-half goals by strikers Asamoah Gyan and Danny Welbeck earned Sunderland a deserved victory. They were the first goals the Blues have conceded at home this season.
Bacary Sagna and Cesc Fabregas were Arsenal's scorers at Goodison Park, with Tim Cahill's 89th-minute consolation coming too late for Everton. Arsenal is now just two points behind Chelsea, with third-place Manchester United - which drew 2-2 at Aston Villa on Saturday - a further point behind. Manchester City is fourth, six points behind the leaders, after drawing at home to Birmingham on Saturday. |
