at Stamford Bridge

A PULSATING second half saw Chelsea and Tottenham share the points as emotions boiled over between managers Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte at the end of this thrilling affair. Both men were shown red cards at the final whistle as tempers got the best of them both in this memorable London derby at Stamford Bridge. 

A last-gasp Harry Kane header, six minutes into injury-time, prompted wild celebrations as Tottenham equalised for the second time in a match they rarely looked like taking anything from.  

A goal from Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly, a superb volley from inside the penalty area, had put the home side on the way in a first half in which they dominated their opponents.
