LONDON - Arsene Wenger got in a push, but Jose Mourinho landed the bigger blow. Maillot Adrien Rabiot . Chelsea consolidated its lead in the Premier League by beating London rival Arsenal 2-0 on Sunday in a feisty encounter that may be best remembered for Wenger losing his normal cool and giving Mourinho a shove in the chest on the sideline. Former Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas set up the second goal for Diego Costa in the 78th minute to make sure Chelsea remained five points clear of defending champion Manchester City atop the standings. Arsenal is now nine points behind in eighth place, having failed to avenge a 6-0 drubbing at Stamford Bridge last season. Both Manchester United and Tottenham climbed above Arsenal with wins. United beat Everton 2-1 to climb to fourth after goalkeeper David de Gea saved a penalty and made two crucial stops to deny the visitors a late equalizer at Old Trafford. Tottenham is sixth after Christian Eriksen scored in the 40th minute to secure a 1-0 win over Southampton. Also Sunday, Queens Park Rangers dropped to the bottom of the standings after losing 2-0 to West Ham. The Chelsea-Arsenal game was always going to be emotional given Wengers humiliation at Stamford Bridge in his 1,000th game in charge last season along with Fabregas facing his former team. It even turned physical in the dugout after a hard foul on Alexis Sanchez, with an angry Wenger squaring up against Mourinho and then giving the Portuguese manager a shove in the chest before being separated by the fourth official. Both coaches downplayed the incident after the game, after Mourinhos side once again had the better of Wengers on the pitch. Wenger described the push as just a little one and said what is to regret after that? Mourinho said everyone should forget the incident. To be fair, I do so many wrong things in football, Mourinho said. But not this time, because this time I was just in my technical area and it was not my problem. Game over. Story over. Arsenals title push may not be quite over yet, but a nine-point gap is looking rather large even this early in the season given Chelseas strong form. Eden Hazard weaved inbetween defenders in the 27th minute before being tripped by Laurent Koscielny in the area, and then converted the ensuing penalty himself to put Chelsea ahead. With Arsenal pushing for an equalizer, Fabregas picked the defence apart in the 78th with a pinpoint long ball up to Costa, who lobbed the ball into the net with one touch. In Manchester, Radamel Falcao scored his first goal for United as the Red Devils won consecutive Premier League games for the first time under manager Louis Van Gaal. Angel Di Maria opened the scoring for the hosts before De Gea saved a penalty from Leighton Baines just before halftime. Baines then picked out Steven Naismith, who put the teams level in the 55th, but Falcao sealed his teams win seven minutes later by slotting home past Tim Howard after di Marias shot landed in the Colombians path. De Gea made a stunning save in stoppage time to tip over the bar Bryan Oviedos left-foot shot from 20 metres. What was my most important save? Maybe the penalty, De Gea said. Every save is important but the team played very well. I think the younger players in the team will learn from these types of games. The team and the manager need to look forward. Mauricio Pochettino got the better of his Southampton successor Ronald Koeman as Tottenham ended its four-match wait for a Premier League win. Eriksen scored with a 20-yard strike in the 40th minute to deny Koemans side a seventh straight win in all competitions. Pochettino took on his former club for the first time since ending a successful 18-month stint at St Marys to lead Spurs. At Upton Park, Nedum Onuohas own-goal gave the Hammers an early lead against QPR before Diafra Sakho headed home a second shortly before the hour mark. Maillot Blaise Matuidi Paris Saint-Germain . And with Miami finishing one run of three games in four nights on Wednesday -- and simultaneously starting another of those gruelling stretches -- Wade may be taking a night off to try and heal. Maillot Hervin Ongenda Paris Saint-Germain . The extension is worth $2.625 million per year, according to TSN Hockey Insider Bob McKenzie.CHICAGO -- Catcher John Baker scored the winning run in the bottom of the 16th inning after pitching a scoreless top half, and the Chicago Cubs overcame a three-run deficit to beat the Colorado Rockies 4-3 on Tuesday night. Baker scored on Starlin Castros fly to end game that lasted 6 hours, 27 minute, a record for longest game by time for both teams. Chicago used seven relievers before Baker (1-0) became the first Cubs position player to take the mound since Aug. 27, 2012, when Joe Mather faced Milwaukee. The Rockies also used all seven relievers in their bullpen, then turned to Tyler Matzek, a starter in the 16th. Matzek (2-5) walked Baker to lead off the inning. Baker advanced to second on a sacrifice, then third on Anthony Rizzos bloop single before scoring. Chicagos Emilio Bonifacio had game-tying two-run homer in the fourth inning and a double among four hits. He is 14 for 35 since returning from the disabled list (strained right oblique) on July 22. Rockies first baseman Justin Morneau returned from the disabled list and drove in two runs with a double. Corey Dickerson added two hits and an RBI Morneau, who had been out since July 13 with a strained neck, entered hitting .312, third best in the National League. He leads Colorado with 62 RBIs. Cubs starter Edwin Jackson lasted through just four innings, labouring with 105 pitches, and allowing three runs on six hits annd three walks. Maillot Adrien Rabiot Paris Saint-Germain. Rockies ace Jorge De La Rosa pitched six innings, allowing three runs and striking out seven. The left-hander entered with wins in five straight decisions dating to June 24. Both teams had chances to win in the 10th. Colorados D.J. LeMahieu missed on a suicide squeeze with Morneau on third and Charlie Culberson on second. Morneau was tagged out by catcher Welington Castillo. In the bottom of the inning, Castillo lined a drive deep to centre field with one out and Castro on second. But the Rockies Charlie Blackmon raced back and made a spectacular diving catch. TRAINERS ROOM Rockies: In addition to Morneau, the Rockies activated left-handed reliever Logan Boone from the DL (diverticulitis/intestinal inflammation). Logan pitched a scoreless ninth. The Rockies also recalled infielder Cristhian Adames from Triple-A Colorado Springs before the game because infielder Josh Rutledge has an upper-respiratory infection. Cubs: The Cubs placed right-handed reliever Neil Ramirez on the 15-day disabled list with a sore triceps. ON DECK Colorado left-hander Brett Anderson (1-3, 3.24 ERA) faces Chicago left-hander Travis Wood (7-9, 5.06 ERA) on Wednesday night. Anderson allowed no runs and two hits in 6 1-3 innings last Friday to earn his first win with Colorado. Wood is 1-1 with a 1.80 ERA in four career games against the Rockies Cheap China Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China China NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
