00:03A derby on the other side of the world against Chelsea. Spurs toughest test of
00:09preseason. Both teams, Clive Allen, have gone strong here today. Tonali, clever
00:16ball, Manu Solomon. I think it's Hato, he's got players arriving, including Tonali!
00:26Spurs break through first and Sandra Tonali, involved in the build-up, finishes it too.
00:33Rob, you're absolutely right, he starts the move with a brilliant forward pass and then
00:38when Manu Solomon has the ball at his feet, he's looking for the options in the 18-yard box,
00:43there's very little there. He then stands still on the ball, he picks the run of Tonali arriving
00:49on the edge of the box, there might well have been a slight, slight touch on the shot,
00:55but watch this ball here. Pops back to him, wonderful forward ball, no options for Solomon
01:01in the 18-yard box, checks back, Tonali arrives, wonderful strike, maybe the slightest of touches,
01:08but it ends up in the back of the net. Really well-crafted goal, Tonali the orchestrator.
01:19Good pressure from Berrival, and Conor Gallagher nearly came away with it, Chelsea
01:25playing in risky fashion. Yeah, that was good press and could have easily picked out Gallagher trying to
01:31pick the ball from the pressure from Berrival.
01:35Kittens in, Esteval arriving, Chelsea level. The young Brazil international,
01:43not necessarily known for his heading ability, has snuck in and the Blues are level.
01:50The reply by Swift. Chelsea one, Spurs one, Esteval the goal scorer.
02:00Solomon, on top of it by Nato, that's poor, Tel might as well, kind of score from that kind of
02:07area
02:07when he swept in that free kick against Sydney. Nicely weighted by Van Hecker to Archie Gray,
02:14inviting him to cross, goal was header, Gallagher onto it. Tel from Robertson.
02:25Great feet, that's his tail. Obviously, Maddison's tight, long-term injury,
02:30they are just taking that little bit of extra care with his participation in pre-season.
02:37Jean-Pedro trying to steal in here for Chelsea, but the pressure from Ben Davies was enough.
02:47That's what he is from Davies, and Tel is making a run for the gap.
02:54Osugo trying to stop him. Tel, what a run! Physical and tricky from Matis Tel.
03:01Yeah, it started with a really good run from Ben Davies. He feeds Tel with the ball,
03:06and he's just confident about driving forward.
03:10Gallagher, Pom.
03:13Good spell this from Spurs. Tel again, and a clever ball to Ben Davies.
03:19And it was begging for a Clive Allen, really, in truth, to be there to tuck that away.
03:24Roberto Di Zerbi gesturing from his technical area. Nice take by Solanke.
03:30Look at Gallagher in the middle. Andy Robertson has found it.
03:34Oh, that looked a really reckless challenge by Fafana.
03:40It's only picking it up from Danso.
03:46Danso's let that run, and he's brought down Jao Pedro.
03:50Well, Ben Davies, was he covering? Not enough, says the referee, and Danso,
03:56three minutes into this friendly, is gone.
03:58Is Ben Davies covering? That would be the only question that I would ask.
04:03Not sure he is. Not sure he's far enough back.
04:09How he adjusts that back line.
04:12Paul Palmer with a bending free kick that had Kinski moving across his line.
04:17I did wonder if Ben Davies was going to give him the reprieve in terms of his position,
04:21but you just looked at me and gestured a card straight away.
04:23You felt that he was in trouble.
04:27Jao Pedro, nipping in again. Great work from him.
04:29Oh, Kinski, what a start-up over by Galwill.
04:32That's an extraordinary piece of goalkeeping from Tony Kinski.
04:36Oh, Rostovale can't believe it, and that is a sensational save. It really is.
04:42Ball's cut back to him. Jao Pedro, nice touch.
04:45Gets to the byline, cuts it back. It's a firm strike.
04:49There's even, I think, a little bit of a deflection off of Robertson.
04:52And what a reaction from Kinski.
04:56Tonali always put under real pressure.
04:59And Esteval denied by Kinski again.
05:05Palmer looking a little bit more influential now.
05:07That's an extraordinary ball down the line to Palestra.
05:11Three with him here.
05:13Cuts it back to Palmer.
05:15And Ben Davies puts his torso in the way of it.
05:23Gittens.
05:26Oh, Malcolm Hardy.
05:31There he is again, Ben Davies.
05:34And he's got Spurs on the move.
05:36This is a moment where Chelsea are stretched.
05:38Three at the back.
05:39Three forward.
05:40Another coming back for Chelsea and Asugo.
05:42Tell holds on with Charleston to Nali.
05:50Gittens away from Gray.
05:54And Andy Robertson will be mighty relieved that that gamble was not punished.
06:00Yeah, he got away with it.
06:01He really did, Andy Robertson.
06:08It's a loop towards Sugo.
06:11They're catching it, let's be honest.
06:13It was a very, very strong challenge.
06:17Oh, what a turn by Rio Cairo-Matton.
06:20An interspace, he gallops here.
06:23Why not?
06:24Why not?
06:26What a moment that would have been for the youngster.
06:29He had Sydney on its feet.
06:30Well, he's got the manager clapping.
06:32He's got the bench clapping.
06:33He's got the stadium clapping.
06:35Because it was an extraordinary turn initially.
06:37And then what he did, he just ate up the ground.
06:39And he kept going.
06:40He had the confidence to open up.
06:42And he's very, very unlucky that he hasn't buried it in the top corner.
06:48Saar, he's already had a pop from distance.
06:50Offloads this time.
06:53To laps up.
06:55And Spurs are defending well.
07:00So Andreas Brookton tell players who was taking the penalty.
07:05It didn't seem to be a voluntary system in the end.
07:07So we'll see if he does something likewise here.
07:09Unless Spurs can win it.
07:11Donnelly!
07:12Oh, and Richarlison!
07:14They have won it!
07:15The ten men of Tottenham Hotspur in Sydney have snatched victory.
07:25What a moment for those Spurs supporters down under.
07:28Challenge here.
07:30I think Archie Gray headed on by Luka.
07:34And then Donnelly.
07:35Good touch out of his feet.
07:38Offside maybe or not.
07:40No VAR.
07:41That's a goal.
07:42That's a winner for Richarlison.
07:45I think he's on with the right back there with Richarlison as he breaks forward anyway.
07:51He believes that side way, way open.
07:55Donnelly just tries to side put it into the open side.
08:01He's unlucky that it doesn't go off in off the inside of the post.
08:05But when it comes out, Richarlison doing what Allgood said to forwards to do.
08:12I think it's only going to be one minute of added time.
08:14And it's been played.
08:16And Spurs have won it.
08:20Forget penalties.
08:22How about Pombo?
08:23Because Richarlison has gone and won this right at the end.
08:27And a second half with a ten-man up to the Danto red card.
08:32We're given a real test and produce the kind of performance they would have to put in in the Premier
08:36League.
08:37Absolutely.
08:38All smiles and rightly so.
08:40A really good exercise.
08:42A tough one.
08:43A physical one intense.
08:44Richarlison is on hand to give ten-man Spurs a victory here in Sydney.
08:50Tonali gave Spurs the lead.
08:52Esteval replied swiftly.
08:54Spurs were on top in terms of possession in that first half.
08:57But it's glory, glory down under for those in Lily White.
09:03And now back to London.
09:05Because things are getting real three weeks away from the Premier League.
09:09Let's head back to Stephen Corker, Chris Hewton, alongside our very own Ben Haynes.
09:13It finishes at Accor Stadium.
09:15Chelsea 1, Tottenham Hotspur 2.
09:17We'll see you next time.
09:18We'll see you next time.
09:18Bye.
09:19Bye.
09:19Bye.
09:30Bye.
09:30Bye.
