Marcos Alonso nets impressive Against Tottenham To brace at Wembley to help Blues record first league win

Marcos Alonso scored twice to inflict more Wembley misery on Tottenham

In fact, if they did not think the stadium was a curse before they will be absolutely paranoid now.

It was a fantastic London derby, absolutely brilliant and breathless and enough perhaps to lift Chelsea out of full blown crisis mode.

But Tottenham will be wondering how on earth they lost a game they dominated in front of 73,587 fans.

And having hauled themselves back in thanks to Michy Batshuayi’s late own goal, they still managed to throw it away as Alonso grabbed an 88th minute winner.

Tottenham have managed just two wins at the new Wembley, they have to play here all season and if they keep getting bad luck like this then they really are in trouble.

Tottenham had so many chances, Chelsea survived an absolute pounding in the second half and now it really will worry Mauricio Pochettino that it has become a mental block.

Alonso’s stunning free kick put Chelsea ahead in the first half as the patched up champions delivered an excellent response amid the talk of crisis.

But just when it looked as if they would survive and enjoy a memorable victory, Tottenham hauled themselves level after 82 minutes.
