LONDON - Chelsea passed another major test of its Premier League title credentials on Saturday, beating Liverpool 2-1 away to maintain a fierce pace at the top of the standings that defending champion Manchester City cannot live with. Ted Williams Jersey .City dropped eight points behind unbeaten Chelsea by drawing 2-2 at lowly Queens Park Rangers thanks to two equalizers from Sergio Aguero, who is the leagues top scorer with 12 goals.Surprisingly, it is Southampton that is pushing Chelsea after 11 games, with a 2-0 win over Leicester leaving the south-coast club in second place and four points off the lead.Chelsea, though, looks unstoppable.Diego Costa scored the 67th-minute winner at Anfield, capping a Chelsea comeback that started in the 14th when Gary Cahill cancelled out a deflected opener from Emre Can.In the second half, we showed something new, which is to be 1-1 at Anfield and not accept the result as a good result and play to win, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said. I think we were very impressive.Elsewhere, Manchester United won 1-0 against Crystal Palace on Juan Matas goal to climb provisionally to sixth, West Ham drew 0-0 at home to Aston Villa and Burnley recorded its first win in the league this season — 1-0 against Hull.At Anfield, Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers made seven changes from the side that lost 1-0 to Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday.His midweek selection was criticized as he appeared to prioritize the clash against Chelsea, and the gamble looked like it could pay off as Liverpool took the lead when Cans long-range strike deflected in off Cahill.Chelsea equalized with a goal that required confirmation from goal-line technology, with Cahill blasting a shot from close range that goalkeeper Simon Mignolet saved before falling back over the line with the ball in his hands.Costas winner came when he pounced on the rebound after Cesar Azpilicuetas shot was parried out by Mignolet.City fell behind at Loftus Road in the 21st when Charlie Austin converted from Mauricio Islas cross. Austin earlier had two goals disallowed, one for offside and one after scoring directly from a mishit free kick by goalkeeper Joe Hart.Hart accidently kicked the ball twice before Austin found the net, and rules state a player cannot touch the ball twice successively from a free kick.Aguero equalized after brilliantly controlling a long pass from Eliaquim Mangala, but an own goal from Martin Demichelis in the 76th restored QPRs lead.Argentina striker Aguero scored again seven minutes later, rounding Robert Green before beating four players on the line attempting to block his shot.Aguero had all the QPR defence in trouble whenever he had the ball, Pellegrini said, while QPR manager Harry Redknapp was left ruing his sides inability to hold on for victory.I really felt at 2-1 we would go on and win the game, Redknapp said. You cant relax when they have got so many quality players in the team.United earned a much-needed three points over Crystal Palace at Old Trafford thanks to Mata, who struck a deflected shot beating goalkeeper Julian Speroni four minutes after coming on as a replacement for Adnan Januzaj in the 63rd.But it was another underwhelming performance from Louis van Gaals team, which started with a makeshift defence that had midfielder Daley Blind and 19-year-old Paddy McNair at centre back with four alternative options injured or suspended.The victory — Uniteds first in four attempts — saw it overtake fierce rival Liverpool in the standings.Southampton continued its formidable start to the season courtesy of two goals in five minutes from Shane Long at St. Marys.The Ireland striker, a substitute for Sadio Mane who had replaced him in the starting lineup, entered the game without a Premier League goal for Southampton since his off-season transfer from West Brom.But he broke the deadlock in the 75th, curling a neat left-footed strike beyond Kasper Schmeichel, before finishing clinically past the Leicester goalkeeper for his second.It was difficult against a team who had very good organization in defence, Southampton manager Ronald Koeman said, adding that it was a tough decision to replace Long with Mane in the starting lineup.Sometimes Shane is not happy. Sometimes Sadio is not happy. It is a good reason to not be happy. Shane made the difference in the second half. Tzu-Wei Lin Jersey . Next up is another showdown with Michigan. Payne scored 18 points, Branden Dawson had 14 and No. 22 Michigan State beat No. 12 Wisconsin 83-75 on Saturday to reach the Big Ten tournament championship. Dustin Pedroia Jersey . Sociedad remained in sixth place with Villarreal a point behind in seventh, both in Europa League spots and in striking distance of fourth place and the final Champions League berth. Sociedad forward Carlos Vela chipped goalkeeper Jaime Jimenez after receiving an equally exquisite lobbed pass from Ruben Pardo to set him up in the 23rd minute at Anoeta Stadium. http://www.cheapredsoxjerseys.com/ . -- Quarterback Josh Johnson has returned to the San Francisco 49ers and his former college coach, Jim Harbaugh. ASHBURN, Va. -- Donte Stallworth was cut Monday by the Washington Redskins, thwarting the veteran receivers comeback. Stallworth was hindered through most of training camp by a hamstring injury. He caught two passes for 33 yards in preseason games. "You could see with the setback with his hamstring, he just wasnt ready," coach Mike Shanahan said. The 32-year-old player signed with the Redskins in June, three months after he was seriously burned in a hot air balloon accident in Florida. He faced a tough challenge making a roster that already includes Pierre Garcon, Joshua Morgan, Santana Moss and Leonard Hankerson. Stallworth has played for six teams over 10 NFL seasons. He missed the 2009 season when he was suspended by the NFL after pleading guilty to killing a pedestrian while driving drunk. He appeared in only one game last year with the New England Patriots before an ankle injury ended his season. "I thought in his best interest, since I knew he waasnt going to be on the football team, was to tell him early," Shanahan said. William Cuevas Jersey. "Give him a chance, possibly, to get with another football team." The Redskins also waived linebacker Ricky Elmore, fullback Eric Kettani, kicker John Potter, receiver Chip Reeves and linebacker Quan Sturdivant. Cornerback and punt returner Richard Crawford, who damaged three ligaments in his left knee in Saturdays preseason game, and linebacker Jeremy Kimbrough (right shoulder) were waived with injury designations. Shanahan said Monday that Crawford will require nine months of recovery. Rookie safety Phillip Thomas (left foot) and linebacker Keenan Robinson (left shoulder) were placed on injured reserve. The Redskins have three more cuts to announce before Tuesdays deadline to reduce the roster to 75. They are expected to be tackle Jeremy Trueblood, linebacker Roddrick Muckelroy and offensive lineman Jacolby Ashworth. None was at Mondays practice. ' ' '
