Thomas Tuchel has grabbed his first major win as a Chelsea coach. His boys dominated the game, as usual, stealing all the possession for themselves. Jorginho’s first-half penalty goal gave Chelsea the 3 points they needed.
Reid Dier made a reckless tackle in the 24th minute on Timo Werner inside Tottenham’s box, resulting in a penalty, which Jorginho gracefully finished.
This defeat means Jose Mourinho has lost at home for 3 consecutive games for the first time in his coaching career.
Tottenham, who have been league leaders this season are now in 8th position, with 33 points. However, Tottenham still has 1 outstanding game.
Chelsea is now 6th on the table with 36 points, 11 points away from the number one spot.
While Thomas Tuchel seems to have his style of play figured, the German is still struggling with scoring goals. Timo Werner is still off-from, as he has failed to score in a premier league game since November.
