Premier League: Chelsea dominates Tottenham

In a match full of intensity, Chelsea got the better of Tottenham (1-0) at Stamford Bridge. A crucial victory that allows the Blues to climb to fourth place in the Premier League and stay on course for the Champions League.

On the field, Chelsea made the difference in the second half. Enzo Fernández found the breakthrough in the 50th minute, heading in a precise ball from a perfect Cole Palmer cross. Moisés Caicedo thought he had doubled the lead, but his goal was rightly disallowed for offside after a VAR review.

Tottenham responded, thinking they had equalized through Pape Matar Sarr, but a prior foul on Caicedo nullified the action. In the dying moments of the match, Heung-min Son had a golden chance to equalize. But Robert Sánchez, in imperial form, thwarted his attempt. Chelsea wins in a hard-fought battle. Tottenham, on the other hand, plunges further into doubt. With this 16th defeat of the season, they record one of their worst Premier League performances since 1992. A worrying sign as the end of the season approaches.
