Tottenham Hotspur produced a disciplined away performance to defeat Chelsea 2-0 at Stamford Bridge, securing only their second victory in 42 visits to the venue. The breakthrough arrived when home goalkeeper Mike Penders punched the ball into his own net under heavy pressure. Cole Palmer was subsequently sent off, before Mathys Tel sealed the three points in the 87th minute following a spectacular solo dribble and finish.

Tottenham Player Ratings

Antonin Kinsky (6): Two poor kicks put his side under pressure during the first half. He almost let a Morgan Rogers shot slip through his grasp in rainy conditions, but managed to escape unpunished. A clean sheet has his score above 5.

Archie Gray (6): Delivered a solid, steady performance without catching the eye, keeping Geovany Quenda quiet for long stretches.

Jan-Paul van Hecke (7): Particularly assured on the ball despite difficult weather conditions. The defender brought composure to the backline and applied crucial pressure on Penders for the opening goal.

Micky van de Ven (7): Equally impressive in possession and proved to be the most adventurous member of the defense when carrying the ball forward.

Andy Robertson (7): Marking his 300th Premier League start, the Scotland full-back overcame an early shaky moment to grow into the match, impacting play at both ends of the pitch. His deliveries into the box in the first half were class.

Mateus Fernandes (7): Though he gave the ball away early in a dangerous area, he earned immense credit as the deepest midfielder in a controlled away display. Delivered the corner that led to the opening goal.

Sandro Tonali (6): Blazed a long-range attempt over the bar late in the first half and put in a steady shift without deeply influencing the contest.

James Maddison (5): Struggled to impose himself in the number 10 role under aggressive pressure from Moises Caicedo. His evening ended prematurely due to injury in the 51st minute.

Mohammed Kudus (6): Curled a good effort wide in the first half and linked up play effectively in attacking phases.

Omar Marmoush (4): Squandered a golden opportunity in the 29th minute with a mis-kick and appeared indecisive in the final third. Struggled throughout his stay.

Mathys Tel (8): Star of the match. Played exceptionally well throughout before capping his display with a brilliant wondergoal for his first league strike of the season.

Substitutes

Conor Gallagher (7): Replaced Maddison in the 51st minute and brought a sharp competitive edge to the midfield. Played a direct role in the sequence that saw Cole Palmer sent off.

Dominic Solanke (6): Came on for Marmoush in the 65th minute and effectively stretched Chelsea’s backline with direct runs in behind.

Pedro Porro (6): Replaced Gray in the 65th minute, registering a quiet, controlled outing as he made his return from a hamstring injury.

Kulusevski (5): Standard 5.
