Tottenham fans stood and applauded at the final whistle. Their team had just been beaten 4-1 by one of their fiercest rivals in a London derby. And in the Chelsea dugout stood their former manager, Mauricio Pochettino, returning to N17 for the first time. But they did not miss him one bit.
Spurs finished the game with just four of their starting XI on the pitch. Cristian Romero and Destony Udogie both picked up red cards, while Micky van de Ven and James Maddison were lost to injury. Yet Ange Postecoglou's side were still in the match until the 94th minute.
