Tottenham vs Chelsea LIVE RESULT: Cole Palmer scores Panenka as Blues fight back from TWO GOALS down to secure epic win

COLE PALMER scored a Panenka as Chelsea fought back from TWO GOALS down to win in a thrilling London derby!

Spurs had taken the lead after Marc Cucurella slipped over TWICE during the build-up to TWO Tottenham goals in a thrilling first half - immediately changing his boots in comical fashion.

Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski took advantage of the errors by the defender but Jadon Sancho then fired a goal back for Chelsea before Palmer levelled from the penalty spot and Enzo Fernandez smashed in a half-volley.

Thee was late drama as Son scored a late goal but the Blues held on for a vital three points that keeps them second in the league.

  • Ange frustrated by lack of consistency

    Against Man City, Spurs put the defending champions to the sword in their own back garden.

    They are capable, on their day, of causing problems for any of the big teams in the Premier League.

    What frustrates the manager most is that they can go from these games to losing to teams in the bottom half of the table.

    If they want to achieve anything this season, that needs to be addressed.

  • Welcome to Tottenham vs Chelsea

    It is a big crunch clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as two bitter rivals face each other in a London derby with Spurs welcoming Chelsea.

    Ange Postecoglou suffered the loss of Ben Davies with a hamstring problem in their recent defeat against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.

    Micky van de Ven is still out with a thigh problem, while Cristian Romero is still working his way back from a toe injury which may mean Archie Gray filling in alongside Radu Dragusin at the back for this game.

    Rodrigo Bentancur, Guglielmo Vicario, Richarlison, Mikey Moore and Wilson Odobert are also out of the first-team reckoning.

    Son Heung-min came on for a second-half cameo in midweek and is likely to immediately come back into the starting line-up.

    Chelsea’s primary selection concerns also come in defence as Wesley Fofana and Reece James are the only senior players missing for the visitors due to injury.

    Youngster Omari Kellyman is also absent, while Mykhaylo Mudryk is ill. Instead Pedro Neto, Jadon Sancho and Nicolas Jackson could all come back in for a refreshed attacking setup at the expense of Madueke, Nkunku and Joao Felix.

    Levi Colwill and Robert Sanchez are also primed for a return in the Blues’ backline but Disasi’s performance in midweek should see him stay in the side replacing Fofana.
