In a championship lifting where all the clubs of the first in the seventh places were imposed, Chelsea could not afford to mark the step this Thursday at Stamford Bridge. Faced with Tottenham, the blues did the job, 1-0 winners of their London neighbors thanks to a single goal signed Enzo Fernandez at the start of the second period (50e), on an offering of Cole Palmer.
Each of the two teams then was entitled to its invalidated realization. Caicedo Coicedo Chelsea in the wake of the opening of the score (56e); Pope Matar Sarr side Tottenham a little later for the aborted equalization (69e). So these are three precious points that fall into the backpack of Blues back in fourth position, with a step ahead of Manchester City – two on Newcastle. Spurs they remain confined to 14e rank, weighted by a third setback in four days.
