Tottenham always get battered! Everywhere they go.

It was a tight affair as the lads return from the international break into an intense London derby vs Spurs at Stamford Bridge. Both sides played a much more physical & defensive match than the goal scoring fest earlier this season. This match stayed goalless until the 2nd half when a Cole Palmer cross into the box was headed in by Enzo Fernandez to give the Blue a 1-0 lead in the 50th minute. Then a Moises Caicedo shot from just inside the penalty area put the lads up 2-0, but VAR strikes again after a long review and deemed Levi Colwill was offsides by the tightest of margins to keep the score at one. Spurs didn’t attempt any shots in the 1st half, but picked up the pace to chase the match. They appeared to have level it up one all in the 69th minute, but VAR once again confirms a foul on Pape Sarr that wipes the game tying goal off that could’ve tied it up. The win keeps up ahead of the rest for 4th (with 3 teams on 15 wins this season) as it will remain a tight race right to the end.

Up next, it’s another derby this time with West London rivals, Brentford FC, who the squad defeated back in December 2-1 that had put in within striking distance of league leaders Liverpool. Feels like so long ago now as Maresca is still trying to find his team’s goal scoring form once again as they struggle their way out of this scoring slump. 7 matches left in the Premier League season, and the pressure is on. Let’s find out if the lads are able to fend off the competition.

Come down to the Londoner Addison this Sunday morning and kick it with the Shed End Dallas crew. We look forward to seeing you there!

Cheers,
