avecinaba Storm in the Etihad Stadium this Sunday, and there was it in a duel that left to the victorious looking to a title that shows in the horizon and to the defeated beginning to sack of the Champions. In spite of that Chelsea competes with the honour to be the valid champion of the Premier League, the suit is him remaining very big, and goes it to collect a Manchester City to the that fits him to perfection.
