Tottenham vs Chelsea LIVE: Premier League result and reaction as late Nicolas Jackson hat-trick sinks 9-man Spurs

Tottenham 1-4 Chelsea: Mauricio Pochettino’s come out on top in tumultuous contest against his old club

Special to go back to Spurs - Pochettino

Chelsea triumphed in a tumultuous contest at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium which saw the home side reduced to nine men, concede four goals and receive a standing ovation from their own fans at the end of the game.

Spurs started perfectly as Dejan Kulusevski cut in from the right side and saw his deflected effort find the back of the net in the sixth minute. The hosts almost doubled their lead only for Son Heung-Min’s goal to be ruled out for offside but the first of many VAR calls.

The video refs then chalked off a goal for Raheem Sterling before cancelling out Moises Caicedo’s equaliser. This VAR check also resulted in the first of Tottenham’s red card as Cristian Romero was judged to have seriously fouled Enzo Fernandez. Cole Palmer then slotted home the resultant penalty.

In the second half, Destiny Udogie clipped Sterling and earned a second booking causing Tottenham to finish the game with nine men. They kept Chelsea at before Sterling nipped in behind and played in Nicolas Jackson. He added two more goals in stoppage as Chelsea ran away with the game, but Spurs performance won over the fans and the scoreline doesn’t do their efforts justice.

GOAL! Tottenham 1-4 Chelsea (Jackson, 90+8’)⚽️

90+8 mins: Four! It’s a very similar goal to the previous two but this time Jackson is the one sent in behind the high line. He carries the ball into the box, goes around the goalkeeper and slots it home.

GOAL! Tottenham 1-3 Chelsea (Jackson, 90+4’)⚽️

90+4 mins: That’s that.

Tottenham’s high line does for them as Conor Gallagher gets in behind again. He brings the ball into the box from the right and slots it back to Nicolas Jackson who belts it home.

Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

90+3 mins: Save! Oh that was so close!

Spurs turn the ball over in midfield and release Son Heung-Min. He takes the ball into the box, cuts to the left and shoots across goal only for Robert Sanchez to palm the ball wide.

Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

90 mins: Chelsea send the ball over the top but Vicario comes sprinting out of the box and clears the ball. He’s taken out by Mudryk in the process and needs a bit of treatment.

Mudryk goes in the book as nine minutes of added time are announced.

Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

88 mins: A Chelsea corner sees Nicolas Jackson as the only man inside the penalty area. The Blues have the lead and their focus is on keeping it.

In theory it should be an easy task but this match has thrown up so many surprises that Spurs will feel they’re still in the game.

Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

85 mins: Chelsea substitute Malo Gusto gives away a free kick to Spurs and the ball it swung into the middle of the box. Rodrigo Bentancur sprints from deep, meets the ball but nods it into the ground where the bounce takes it wide of the back post!

Great chance for Spurs to equalise but it goes begging.

Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

81 mins: Chelsea an now afford to knock the ball around and keep possession. A win would be massive for them and Spurs need to chase this game.

Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

78 mins: Disallowed goal!

Tottenham win a free kick high up the pitch and whip it into the box. Rodrigo Bentancur, I think, flicks the ball on and finds Eric Dier over by the far post.

He volleys the ball past Robert Sanchez and starts to celebrate before the offside flag is raised.

VAR checks it and confirms the decision.

GOAL! Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea (Jackson, 75’)⚽️

75 mins: Chelsea show some patience and composure with passing the ball along the halfway line. Raheem Sterling makes a run through the middle of the defence and is given the ball.

He carries it into the penalty area, draws out Vicario then slips the ball across to Nicolas Jackson who taps it home to send Chelsea ahead.

VAR are checking it though.

Tottenham 1-1 Chelsea

73 mins: Pedro Porro searches for another foul and draws one out of Marc Cucurella. Tottenham move the ball quickly up the pitch but Rodrigo Bentancur loses possession on the edge of the box.

To give Tottenham their dues, they are still trying to advance the ball and target the goal. It’s tricky with just nine men though.
