Overview
- Chelsea beat Tottenham 1-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with João Pedro scoring in the 34th minute after Moisés Caicedo won possession on the edge of the box.
- Tottenham generated an expected goals figure of 0.05 — their lowest in a Premier League match since Opta’s records began — from three shots and one on target.
- Home supporters booed at half-time and full-time, highlighting a long-running issue that has left Spurs with few points from their home fixtures this season.
- Television footage showed van de Ven and Spence appearing to head straight down the tunnel at full-time, which Frank later characterized as a minor issue born of frustration.
- Goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario made several strong saves to keep the score down, while the result moved Chelsea into fourth on goal difference behind third-placed Spurs.
