Livestream Bar 6 January In the first leg of the Premier League Cup semi-final in the early hours of this morning, Chelsea beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 at home thanks to a goal from Havertz and a goal from Ben Davis. Former Spurs defender Michael Dawson commented on the match in an interview with the Daily Mail and said that under the pressure of Chelsea, Spurs' defense in this game was full of holes and lost their recent calm.
Speaking about the first goal conceded, Dawson said: "Tottenham's opening performance set the tone for them in the first half. When Hoybel took the ball, the team's performance was still within control. However, throughout the half, Chelsea suppressed Tottenham, Alonso broke through the Tottenham backline in the opening as if in no man's land, Andavers only had to wait for Alonso to feed the ball and send the ball into the goal. A mistake by Tanganga and Sanchez in that area was fatal, and Spurs conceded a goal at the cost. ”
'Emerson was also responsible for conceding the ball and Tottenham hottest played very subdued in the first half.
Speaking about Davis' oolong ball, Dawson said: "It's okay if I don't. Can't Loris hint at that? It can only be said that Davis was too unlucky. The lack of effective communication between the teams resulted in a disastrous loss of goals. The whole team is a bit lacking in calm, which is far from their recent performance. ”
"Tangango used one of the worst ways to handle the ball, the defender's duty was to handle the ball out of the danger zone in the first place, he shouldn't have handled it that way. In a state of defensive chaos, the defensive player must always maintain calm and handle the ball in a reasonable way. Spurs eventually paid for defensive uncoolism. ”
