EPL Results Week 37: Friday's 2017 Premier League Scores, Top Scorers and Table

Tom SunderlandMay 12, 2017

Chelsea put the finishing touches on their 2016-17 Premier League title chase on Friday after a 1-0 win over West Bromwich Albion was enough to see them clinch the crown with two games remaining.

Michy Batshuayi was the unlikeliest of heroes for the Blues and came off the bench as a late substitute to steer home Cesar Azpilicueta's cross, winning Chelsea the crown with just his second Premier League goal for the club.

The Blues now sit an unassailable 10 points clear of Tottenham Hotspur at the head of the Premier League standings as manager Antonio Conte celebrates triumph in his maiden season among England's elite.

Recap

Chelsea showcased calmness, composure and no small amount of patience on Friday after clinching a fifth Premier League trophy at the Hawthorns, where West Brom fell short despite an admirable fight at home.

One season after slumping to a 10th-placed finish in the English top flight, Chelsea confirmed their place at the top of its order, and manager Antonio Conte was the man raking in the plaudits:

West Brom were stubborn in defence and looked motivated to stop their opponents at all costs, a tactic that worked until Batshuayi's introduction in the 75th minute, with goalkeeper Ben Foster to thank for their clean sheet up until that point.

But the duck was finally broke after Azpilicueta drove the ball into an unmarked Batshuayi, who put a poor first season in England behind him to convert the all-important chance of the match, per Squawka:

In Friday's other Premier League fixture, Everton were also forced to play the waiting game in their victory over the visiting Hornets at Goodison Park but capitalised through Barkley to win their penultimate game of the campaign.

Barkley beat Watford stopper Heurelho Gomes with a lovely dink in the 56th minute, although Match of the Day questioned whether the midfielder, linked with a move away this summer, would be scoring any more:

The Merseyside clash bubbled over at times as two outfits seeking their strongest possible finish went hammer and tongs in search of three points, although the Toffees rarely looked too troubled in defence.

Everton came into the fixture already assured of a seventh-placed finish in manager Ronald Koeman's first season at the helm, although Friday's spoils move them closer to the Premier League's upper echelon of heavyweights.
