00:00Welcome to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for what's usually a rip-roaring London derby
00:07between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, two teams with plenty of high-scoring history,
00:12especially in more recent times. Spurs have started the season well under new management,
00:18Chelsea have at various times been good, bad and then indifferent,
00:23so I wonder Matt Holland, what might we be in for today?
00:26Okay. Garnaccio.
00:33Bearing down on Toro. Enzo Fernandes.
00:41Garnaccio. And again Garnaccio.
00:44The eventual shot from Alejandro Garnaccio, but he and Pedro Neto are finding plenty of space.
00:57He tries to get bodies back behind the ball.
01:03That's going to bounce out of Pedro's way.
01:05Vicario is good for him.
01:14Big chance for Chelsea.
01:16Pedro, good pressure.
01:19Vicario stays big and makes an excellent save.
01:25Big chance that though for Pedro.
01:27It's cute as giving Poro some help on this occasion and he needed it because Enzo Fernandes once again
01:36made a brilliant run that took Poro's attention and left the space for Garnaccio.
01:39Oh, Van der Ven, Caicedo went through him.
01:48Big chance for João Pedro and Chelsea have the lead.
01:51On a ground where they've caused Spurs so much previous pain.
02:07But Tottenham complicit in their own downfall.
02:12But it's great pressure in midfield from Chelsea.
02:15They win the ball back, give it away.
02:21But overplay at the back.
02:23Caicedo so quick.
02:25Forces the error from Van der Ven.
02:27Then he's got the awareness to pick out João Pedro, who still has a bit to do.
02:35Excellent work from Caicedo.
02:37Short pass from Simmonds back to Van der Ven.
02:40And he reads it brilliantly.
02:42Excellent finish as well from João Pedro.
02:45No more than Chelsea deserve.
02:46I think on the bounds of play, they've been the better side.
02:48They've looked the more threatening.
02:54And no more than Chelsea expect when they come here.
02:57Serial winners at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
03:02Five wins in their six previous Premier League visits.
03:05And in front, through the Brazilian João Pedro.
03:13Malo Gusto.
03:14And first time hit draws a very good save.
03:19João Pedro denied this time by Guglielmo Vicario.
03:24That's too easy, too passive from Spurs.
03:27No pressure on the ball.
03:29Gusto allowed to run into the space down the channel.
03:31Nobody goes with him.
03:34And then he picks out João Pedro in the middle of the box.
03:36Danso's miles off him as well.
03:38Kolo Mawani.
03:49Slip to Pat Matassar.
03:51Kudus!
03:52Sanchez managed to save the ball and push it out of harm's way.
03:58Much more dangerous tackle.
04:02This is the Kudus opportunity.
04:04They've worked this quite nicely.
04:05And actually, it's a really good effort from Kudus because Sanchez is going one way and has to change his body weight to go to his right.
04:10And make the save gets enough on it to clear the danger area.
04:14And it's within reach of Vicario with Garnaccio asking, hey, how about a pass?
04:29Why not me?
04:33Again, Pedro in there too.
04:37Gusto to James.
04:38And Fernandes.
04:46He arrives so well, Enzo Fernandes.
04:49From a deeper position.
04:52Times his run, it looks like to perfection.
04:55Just a fraction too much on the cross from Rhys James.
04:59Now it's Garnaccio.
05:04João Pedro.
05:05Plunged upon with gratitude by Vicario.
05:08How is this only one?
05:13Guilty Tottenham.
05:14They're giving the ball away once more.
05:16Brilliant from Caicedo.
05:17Breaking play up.
05:19Freeing Garnaccio.
05:19He's had so much time and space today.
05:22They go to their bench.
05:23Romeo Lavia.
05:25Gittins.
05:27Fernandes.
05:29Again, Jamie Gittins.
05:31João Pedro.
05:33Enzo Fernandes.
05:35Pedro Neto.
05:36And now Rhys James.
05:47Fantastic free-flowing move from Chelsea.
05:50Quick feet.
05:51Running without the ball.
05:54Excellent awareness from João Pedro to pick out Enzo Fernandes.
05:57Could have gone for goal himself.
05:58Went for the pass to Neto.
06:01Rhys James eventually fires over the bar.
06:04Estevão.
06:08Nice ball.
06:09João Pedro.
06:11And still.
06:12And Gittins.
06:16That would have been the goal to take Chelsea above Spurs in the table.
06:20Yeah, that was the game.
06:22Tottenham still reeling from the fact that they've just kicked a long ball straight into the arms of Robert Sanchez.
06:26And to score his first Premier League goal.
06:30Romero.
06:32Deployed up top.
06:35Estevão.
06:37Fernandes.
06:39And João Pedro.
06:42Some save by Vicario.
06:43Somehow the game isn't over and it should be.
06:51Chelsea should be out of sight.
06:53Chance after chance.
06:55Two in the last 30 seconds that would have sealed the three points.
06:59Sarp.
07:10Spence.
07:12Sanchez.
07:13And that does it.
07:18And Chelsea's substitutes are off the bench in celebration.
07:21Because this means a lot.
07:24It's a turn back in the right direction after a home defeat by Sunderland.
07:28It's six wins in seven Premier League visits.
07:31To the home of one of their arch rivals.
07:34Tottenham Hotspur.
07:35Spurs moribund today.
07:37Chelsea thanks to João Pedro's first half goal.
07:40Go fourth in the table.
07:42Just one place behind Spurs.
07:45Spurs nil.
07:46Chelsea one.
07:47Chelsea one.
