At the same time as Bournemouth – Manchester City, which saw the coronation of Arsenal, Chelsea hosted Tottenham for their last home meeting of the season, at the end of this 37th day of the Premier League. A London derby with enormous stakes, since Tottenham had the opportunity to validate their continuation in the event of a victory or a draw, while the Blues had to win to maintain any hope of competing in the Europa League. Finally, the meeting turned to the advantage of the residents of Stamford Bridge who won (2-1) this Tuesday evening.
With a long shot, Enzo Fernández first allowed Callum McFarlane’s men to take the advantage (18th, 1-0), before Andrey Santos doubled the lead in the second half (67th, 2-1). Despite the reduction in the gap from Richarlison (74th, 2-1), the Spurs did not manage to come back neck and neck with their evening opponent and will have to wait for the final day against Everton to validate their maintenance. Opposite, Chelsea climbs to 8th position and is two points behind Brighton (7th), which is currently qualified for the C3.
