Chelsea's head coach Enzo Maresca and players celebrate at the end of the English Premier League soccer match between Tottenham Chelsea, at the Hotspur stadium in London.
Premier League: Chelsea Edge Spurs 4-3 At The London Stadium
Don’t listen to Enzo Maresca. Chelsea really is a Premier League challenger this season. In a wild London derby, Chelsea conceded twice in the opening 11 minutes before recovering brilliantly for a 4-3 win at Tottenham to move four points behind Liverpool on Sunday. Cole Palmer sealed the comeback with an impudent “Panenka” penalty — one of his two converted spot kicks in the match. The Blues’ only losses in the league have been to Manchester City — in the opening round, way before the champion’s recent meltdown — and Liverpool. They’ve won their last four league games, scoring 14 goals in the process.
