However, Ange Postecoglu’s men took the advantage thanks to Cristian Romero’s beautiful header in the first quarter of an hour (1-0, 11th). However, the residents of the London Stadium managed to reverse the trend after defending well, through Jarrod Bowen (1-1, 52nd) then James Ward-Prowse (2-1, 74th). Three points which allow the Irons (9th) to come back to within three points of their evening opponent (5th), beaten for the fourth time in their last 5 outings.
