Penders error & Palmer sees red - player ratings for Chelsea v Spurs

Tottenham Hotspur claimed a rare 2-0 win away to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. It was only Spurs' second victory there in 42 visits, and the performance justified the outcome on a night when Chelsea struggled to turn pressure into goals.

The turning point came from Chelsea goalkeeper Mike Penders, 21, who was making his first Premier League start. He endured a miserable introduction when he punched the ball into his own net, putting Tottenham ahead and setting the tone for a nervous evening. Supporters later gave Penders an average rating of 3.96.

Chelsea's task became harder when Cole Palmer was sent off, the first red card of his senior career. It removed one of the hosts' most creative players when they needed a response. Palmer had tested goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky with a curling effort, but his dismissal left Chelsea short-handed.

Mathys Tel settled the contest with a spectacular dribble and finish for his first Premier League goal of the season. The BBC reporter gave Tel a rating of 8 after a lively display, while Mateus Fernandes was voted player of the match by fans, with an average of 7.66.

For Chelsea, Pedro Neto and Moises Caicedo stood out as the strongest performers. Neto won the ball back high up the pitch and received the highest fan rating among Chelsea players, at 4.55, while Caicedo constantly disrupted Tottenham's rhythm.
