Cunha leads Manchester United to victory over Chelsea in PL

Brazilian Matheus Cunha boosted Manchester United's chances of qualifying for next season's Champions League by scoring the winning goal against hosts Chelsea in a 1-0 victory in the 33rd round of the English Premier League.

Third-placed Manchester United extended their lead over sixth-placed Chelsea to ten points (58 to 48), with only 15 points remaining to be contested this season.

Fourth consecutive league defeat

The top five teams in the league will qualify for the premier European competition next season.

However, this fourth consecutive league defeat dashes Chelsea's hopes of returning to Europe's elite next season and increases the pressure on their manager, Liam Rosenior, just three months after he took over.
