Chelsea beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 on Tuesday thanks to goals either side of half-time from Enzo Fernandez and Andrey Santos, leaving Spurs still at risk of relegation from the Premier League in their final game of the season on Sunday.
Fernandez unleashed a dipping shot that goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky could not get close to in the 18th minute and turned provider for Chelsea’s second in the 67th, cushioning a high ball into the feet of Santos, who scored from close range.
Richarlison got one back for Spurs in the 74th minute, but the defeat means the north Londoners remain two points above West Ham United in the last unresolved relegation spot. However, Spurs have a much better goal difference.
