Chelsea news today, Gossip and rumors Today’s Chelsea news: Tottenham defeats Chelsea 2-0, and today’s Chelsea and Tottenham highlights.
Chelsea fans had high hopes for today’s game, but Graham Potter and his team failed to score despite numerous chances.
Hakim Ziyech of Chelsea was shown a red card against Tottenham, but it was quickly changed to yellow.
Chelsea’s Hakim Ziyech is shown a red card during the Blues’ Premier League match against Tottenham, but the card is changed to a yellow after a VAR review.
In a bizarre incident near the end of the first half of Chelsea’s London derby away to Tottenham on Sunday, Hakim Ziyech was sent off and then brought back on.
Referee Stuart Attwell initially showed Ziyech the red card after he appeared to push Tottenham’s Emerson Royal in the face during a melee late in the first period, but he was then told not to leave the pitch as the official went over.
Following several replays on the pitch-side screen, Attwell crossed his arms to rule out the red card and instead produced a yellow card for the Moroccan attacker.
Replays showed Ziyech catching Emerson in the face, but his hand appeared to slip after pushing the Brazilian on the shoulder.
The brawl began after the former Ajax player fouled Richarlison, but he was given a reprieve and will miss the rest of the game.
Tottenham came closest to scoring in the first half after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s deflected effort had earlier hit the post.
Chelsea had previously lost Thiago Silva to injury, with Wesley Fofana replacing him. Oliver Skipp put Spurs ahead early in the second half.
What are your thoughts on Tottenham? Today’s match against Chelsea was won by Tottenham at home by a score of 2-0.
But the question is whether it is the fault of the coach or the Chelsea players for not considering only one goal or a draw in today’s match.
