Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic was on target for the Blues as he grabbed a late winner in the 90th minute to boost their hopes of finishing in the top four of the Premier League.

Elsewhere, West Ham who were beaten 0-1, had themselves been hoping to finish in the Champions League places, after a good start to the season, but their form has tailed off in recent weeks. 

Pulisic duly dispatched a cross from Marcos Alonso to inflict a 1-0 defeat on West Ham who were reduced to 10 men after Craig Dawson saw a red card for denying Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku a goal-scoring chance. 

After scoring the winning goal, Pulisic sent the Stamford Bridge into a celebratory mood and helped Chelsea move five points clear of fourth-placed Arsenal, who have played a game more than the Blues.
