Tottenham Hotspur football team was reduced to nine men during their match against Chelsea. Udogie was sent off with a second yellow card for a foul on Sterling. Three of Spurs' back four players have been forced to leave the game prematurely. Despite their brave resistance, Tottenham eventually conceded a goal in the 75th minute, breaking their defense. Chelsea went on to win the match 3-1, with Nico Jackson scoring two goals.
What an absolutely ridiculous game. Summed up by the fact that Jackson somehow goes home with the match ball. Spurs’ high line with nine men was remarkable.
Chelsea make it 3-1 through Jackson on the break moments after Son so nearly equalised. Huge cheers from the Spurs fans after conceding the goal.
Chelsea lead nine-man Tottenham! Nico Jackson ⚽️ #BBCFootball #TOTCHE #epl https://t.co/LDxb61WVnQ
Jackson kept mis-timing run after run but Sterling shows him how it's done by beating the offside trap and Jackson is the beneficiary after the ball is squared. Spurs' brave resistance finally broken in the 75th minute. They're still singing for their team in the home stands.
Tottenham is down to nine men 😱🟥 (Via @NBCSportsSoccer) https://t.co/749f1LQlyV
Spurs down to nine men. Udogie's been sent off. Second yellow for scything down Sterling. He could have been given a straight red in the first half. Three of Spurs' back four have exited this game prematurely. Still only in the 56th minute.
Spurs should be down to 9 here lol
