Video Highlights: Tottenham 1-4 Chelsea - All Goals (Watch)

The final whistle goes to bring a quite extraordinary game to an end as Chelsea celebrate a 4-1 victory over nine-man Spurs. 

The scoreline does not even begin to tell the story, with the hosts competitive right up until the 94th minute when the Blues finally pulled away. 

Spurs took the lead after six minutes as Kulusevki's shot deflected in, but Chelsea responded, thanks in part to Romero's ill-discipline as the defender's high challenge on his international team-mate Fernandez saw him sent off and handed Palmer the opportunity to level from the spot, which he duly did. 


The hosts were dealt a further blow when Udogie was shown a second yellow card with 10 minutes of the second half gone, but Chelsea struggled to utilise their numerical advantage against a gutsy Spurs side. 

However, the resistance was broken with 15 minutes to play, James sliding Sterling in before he squared for Jackson to finish. Pochettino's side failed to kill off the game and were nearly pegged back, Dier having a goal disallowed before both Bentancur and Son went close, but the visitors finally put the result to bed in added time, Jackson netting twice to secure his hat-trick and a 4-1 victory.


Spurs' unbeaten start is over, but their fans will be encouraged by a brave display in very tough circumstances. 

They remain second, a point off leaders Manchester City, while Chelsea move up to the top half. 

Both teams are in Premier League action next weekend, with Postecoglou's men taking on Wolves at Molineux on Saturday before Chelsea host City the following day. That is all we have from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, so thanks for your time and goodbye!
