After a goalless first half at the Stadium of Light Nicolas Anelka broke the deadlock to ensure that he wins the race for the Golden Boot, the Chelsea striker breaking from inside his own half and lashing a wonderful 25-yarder into the top corner. The Black cats drew level thanks to a flap from Petr Cech, the keeper failing to catch Leadbitter?s cross and Kieran Richardson took advantage to drill in the leveller. Chelsea retook the lead 15 minutes from time after Salomon Kalou blasted a shot into Fulop?s near post after Sunderland failed to clear a corner. Chelsea opened up a 2-goal lead when Ashley Cole fired home a right-foot volley on the rebound after Malouda?s shot was saved. Kenwyne Jones met an Andy Reid cross to cut the deficit to one.
