Chelsea produced a remarkable turnaround to beat Tottenham 4-3 in Sunday’s Premier League clash, recovering from two goals down inside the opening quarter of an hour.
Spurs raced into a fast start, capitalising on defensive slips from Marc Cucurella to build an early two-goal cushion. Softfootball reports that Chelsea responded quickly, though, halving the deficit through Jadon Sancho’s strike from outside the box in the 17th minute.
The comeback was completed with 17 minutes left to play, as captain Enzo Fernandez fired past Fraser Forster for his third goal in four matches, a major turnaround after failing to score in his previous 25 appearances.
Cole Palmer then added a fourth from the penalty spot late on to give Chelsea breathing room.
Tottenham captain Son Heung-Min pulled one back deep into injury time, but it proved to be nothing more than a consolation as Chelsea held on to complete an impressive comeback victory.
