Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 Chelsea: Carabao Cup Final – Chelsea booked their place in the final of the EFL Cup after a commanding performance in the capital. The Blues took the lead through Rudiger inside the first half, with Gollini’s error allowing him to head home from a Mount corner. Spurs did win a penalty before the first 45 minutes came to an end, but VAR officials decided Andre Marriner’s original decision was wrong after he ruled Rudiger had fouled Hojbjerg in the box.

Andre Marriner awarded a second penalty in the second half, but the officials sided with Chelsea for a second time after Kepa brought down Lucas Moura in the box by winning the ball. Spurs’ bad luck continued as Kane’s goal was ruled out for offside, and their wait for a trophy goes on.

Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 Chelsea: Chelsea cruise into the Carabao Cup Final

After tonight, Conte will look at his former club with envy, with Tuchel’s squad packed full of talent. While the tie was all but over before the second leg, Spurs lacked any spark off the bench. The Italian will undoubtedly learn from the experience, while Chelsea march on as their unbeaten run is now at 11 matches.

Despite a spirited second half performance from Tottenham, Chelsea ultimately breezed through to the EFL Cup final with a 3-0 aggregate win over Antonio Conte’s men. Scorers: Rüdiger 19′

The Blues named an exciting from two of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner here and it was the German who had the best chance early on, chipping Pierluigi Gollini in the Tottenham goal, but watching the ball just clip the crossbar. But it wasn’t long before Chelsea had taken the lead as Antonio Rüdiger jumped highest in the area and headed in from close range.

Spurs really should have equalised on 30 minutes as Davinson Sanchez’s header was flicked on but Harry Kane couldn’t connect at the far post. The home side then thought they had a penalty but Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s tumble was adjudged to be outside the area after a VAR check.

The Video Assistant was at it again after the break as Spurs were correctly denied another penalty after Lucas was tackled by Kepa inside the area. And for a third time a major decision went against the north London side as Harry Kane’s effort was chalked off for offside.
