Chelsea vs Newcastle the outcome was in favor of both side.
Newcastle United settled for fourth position in the Premier League table on the final matchday of the season, drawing 1-1 with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The Magpies needed Manchester United to slip up against Fulham at Old Trafford to stand a chance of finishing third, but Erik ten Hag‘s side were 2-1 winners over the Cottagers.
The result in London therefore mattered little for Eddie Howe‘s side, who will have Champions League football next season, but they claimed a point against an improved Chelsea.
The visitors took the lead in the ninth minute through Anthony Gordon, but an own goal from Kieran Trippier in the 27th minute saw Chelsea level the scores, and it finished 1-1 in interim manager Frank Lampard‘s final game in charge of the Blues.
Mauricio Pochettino is set to take charge of the Blues this summer, and he will be confident of improving on a season that has seen the London club finish down in 12th spot in the table.

Newcastle had a half-chance inside the opening two minutes when Alexander Isak worked some space inside the Chelsea box, but the forward’s effort was saved by Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.
The visitors did manage to make the breakthrough in the ninth minute, though, with Elliot Anderson‘s brilliant low cross being tapped into the back of the net from close range by Gordon.
It was another incredibly poor goal to concede from Chelsea’s point of view, with two players being attracted to the crosser, and Gordon was free inside the penalty box.
Isak sent another effort just wide of the home side’s post in the 11th minute, before Martin Dubravka did well down the other end to keep out a header from Thiago Silva, which had been deflected towards goal.
Chelsea managed to level the scores in the 27th minute of the contest, with Trippier turning an effort from Raheem Sterling into the back of the net from close range.
The equaliser had been coming, with the Blues responding impressively to the early setback, and they put the pressure immediately back on Newcastle,
with a dangerous delivery from Cesar Azpilicueta causing problems inside the away side’s penalty box.
