Chelsea moved to the brink of winning the title with a 1-0 win over Manchester United on Saturday, but Jose Mourinho says the race is not over yet. Eden Hazard scored the only goal at Stamford Bridge to move the league leaders within two wins of being crowned champions. John Terry led the celebrations on the field at full-time, with his team clear in the knowledge that they are almost there in the hunt for a first title in five years. John Terry leads the Chelsea celebrations after Saturday's victory against Manchester United . Wins in their next two games against Arsenal at the Emirates and against Leicester City would wrap up the Barclays Premier League crown with room to spare. But Mourinho shot down any talk of celebration and has said he will not allow his players to believe they have crossed the finish line until the maths say so. ‘In football is not about if it's not about almost, it's about mathematics,' Mourinho said. ‘When mathematically it's done, we celebrate. Until that moment we need two victories  to be champions. ‘We need to win matches. What we can say is that we play nine points at home. We can be champions just at home with the matches we play at home. Obviously if we can get points away, it's better. ‘I am too old on this. I think I will be ready to work again next week and to make the players feel that there is still a long way to go.’ Chelsea need just two more wins to clinch the championship . Chelsea were forced to defend on the edge of their own penalty area for much of the game as United took the initiative with 70 per cent of the possession. Centre back Kurt Zouma was paired with Nemanja Matic in midfield as Mourinho sought to stop Louis van Gaal’s side who have been in rampant form of late. The Portuguese coach had nothing but praise for his entire team for the way they fought to keep the visitors at bay. Manager Jose Mourinho has warned his players they still have work to do . ‘The team was fantastic,’ he said. ‘I'm the one that knows how fantastic it was. The game was exactly what we want. When we manage to play the game we want to play, the game was fantastic. ‘Eden had that magic that the top ones have, especially in big matches. Obviously it was fundamental for us, but I think (Gary) Cahill made an amazing block on a (Radamel) Falcao shot. JT was amazing. The keeper was great. ‘(Cesar) Azpilicueta was, for me, the best player on the pitch. (Nemanja) Matic worked like an animal. (Kurt) Zouma put (Marouane) Fellaini outside the game. The number 11 (Didier Drogba) was another animal fighting against two kids with age to be his son. ‘Oscar worked fantastically well, Ramires came in and gave what we need, even (John Obi) Mikel came in and he holds the ball. And Willian was in bed for two days and comes here directly from his house and put himself available to give a little help. It’s fantastic.’
