Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur: Blues secure crucial win
Chalobah and Jackson on target as Spurs' Champions League hopes dented
Chelsea dealt a significant blow to Tottenham Hotspur's hopes of qualifying for next season's UEFA Champions League with a 2-0 victory at Stamford Bridge on Monday night.
The Blues took the lead in the 17th minute when Trevoh Chalobah rose highest to head home a cross from Hakim Ziyech. Nicolas Jackson doubled the advantage shortly after the hour mark, finishing off a flowing move with a clinical strike.
Tottenham struggled to create clear-cut chances throughout the match and were ultimately punished for their lack of attacking prowess. The result leaves them eight points behind fourth-placed Chelsea with just seven games remaining in the Premier League season.
Conclusion
Chelsea's victory was a huge boost to their own hopes of securing European football next season, while Tottenham's defeat is a major setback in their quest for a top-four finish. The Blues will now be confident of finishing in the top six, while Spurs may need to settle for a place in the Europa League or Europa Conference League.
