First London Darby of the season between Tottenham and Chelsea. The champions comming back from an opening day home defeat to Burnley,And spurs with an away victory at Newcastle.
It will be interesting to see how spurs fare at their new home...Although Wembley have not favoured Tottenham in the past, will see how they fare at Wembley against the champions.
The game started as usual as we saw three central as Alonso and mosses operated from the blind sides. The game dint take long to burst to life as Azpillicueta cross found Morata in the box but the striker headed wide...an encouraging start from the champions.
Dele Ali soon had his opportunity but he could only blast wide. Then Chelsea got a free-kick just at the edge, Alonso stepped up the curl the ball past the wall and into the net to give the champions a 0-1 lead.
Rudiger soon entered the refree's record books after he fouled Kane...David Luis soon joined as he fouled Eriksen. Chelsea had all the defending to do as spurs threw everything they got at Chelsea but the half finished 0-1 with the visitors In front
. The second interval began with Azpilicueta soon blocked an Eriksen shot...Wanyama was the latest players to shoot but his effort still went wide.
It was a double change for Chelsea as Pedro and Batshuayi come on for Willian and Morata...And Tottenham soon made changes as Sissioko came in for Davis.
It was soon after that Batshuayi put the ball in his own net to draw the host level at 1-1. With six minutes to play time the score was still 1-1.
The champions soon took the lead through Alonso...great exchange of passes from Pedro and Alonso opened up spurs defence for Alonso to hit the champions in front again.
The game remained 1-2 as the champions ran away 1-2 winners at Wembley.
Spurs Wembley horrow continues...
