Tottenham beaten by Chelsea and loses EPL’s last undefeated record

Rishu02 mins

During a tumultuous London derby on Monday, Tottenham’s undefeated streak in the English Premier League concluded as their players lost their composure. A 4-1 triumph for Chelsea was secured by Nicolas Jackson’s belated trio of goals, with two dismissals shown to Tottenham defenders Cristian Romero and Destiny Udoji. The game also included five goals disallowed and a courageous strategic approach by Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou to persevere with nine players. Despite Tottenham’s courageous yet potentially inexperienced defensive formation, Chelsea ultimately made headway, with Jackson’s three goals from the 75th minute settling the frenzied contest. Mauricio Pochettino, making a return to Tottenham as the visiting manager, commemorated a noteworthy victory that also reminisced about his tenure leading the team to a Champions League final from 2014-19. The match, notably the initial half, was distinguished by disorder, encompassing a series of occurrences such as dismissals, annulled goals, casualties, altercations, and a substantial duration of added time. Romero’s conduct on the field, involving a strike directed at Levi Colwill, initially went without punishment, but the World Cup champion eventually received a red card alongside three other players. Postecoglou’s daring endeavour to secure a victory instead of settling for a draw contributed additional excitement to the eventful game.

Fulham vs Tottenham: – Fulham won by 5-3 in penalty shootout

Rishu02 mins

In a painful evening at Craven Cottage, Spurs experienced their earliest exit from the Carabao Cup in nearly two decades. On Tuesday night, Tottenham suffered a 5-3 defeat in a penalty shootout, marking their first competitive loss in the Ange Postecoglou era. The crucial moment came as Marek Rodak saved Davinson Sanchez’s spot-kick. The aftermath of this defeat will likely prompt questions regarding Postecoglou’s team selection. Despite a promising start to their Premier League campaign, Tottenham made nine changes, an unexpected decision considering the absence of European football. This loss squandered a valuable opportunity for the north London team to break their 15-year trophy drought this season. Interestingly, Richarlison’s season might find a resurgence following his first goal in the second half, expertly heading in Ivan Perisic’s cross to counterbalance Micky van de Ven’s own goal in the first half. This unfortunate own goal marked van de Ven’s second such incident in just four appearances for Tottenham, and it was initiated by Tom Cairney’s cross. Ultimately, Fulham emerged victorious, with Kenny Tete delivering the decisive winning penalty. Fulham’s progression to the third-round draw on Wednesday night leaves Tottenham to reflect on their unexpected Carabao Cup elimination.
