Tottenham End Stamford Bridge Drought With 2-0 Win Over Chelsea

A goalkeeper own goal, Cole Palmer's red card, Mathys Tel's long-range strike decided the derby, signalling a swing in early Premier League momentum.

Overview

  • Tottenham beat Chelsea 2-0 at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, breaking their winless run at that venue that stretched back to 2018.
  • Chelsea goalkeeper Mike Penders diverted a Mateus Fernandes corner into his own net to open the scoring for Tottenham.
  • Cole Palmer received a second yellow and was sent off shortly after the own goal, and Mathys Tel sealed the result with a long-range finish.
  • Chelsea squandered a clear chance when substitute Estêvão missed an early second-half opportunity, and both teams were affected by pre-match injuries that changed their lineups.
  • The result lifts pressure on Tottenham in the early 2026/27 table, threatens Chelsea's top-four place, and the match was carried exclusively in Brazil on Disney+ (Premium).
