Welcome to Chelsea sport update. Please subscribe, like, share and comment. Lloris dives the right way, but it’s no messing from Jorginho as he discards the hop and skip and instead just runs straight and powers home.
Chelsea deservedly ahead in this London derby after an impressive start. Spurs lethargic and comfortably second best.
Tottenham on the back foot once again straight after the penalty as they are forced into more defending.
Spurs briefly threaten a counter, but are well-marshalled by the experienced Thiago Silva.
Standard Sport’s James Robson
Chelsea are absolutely bossing this. They’re pressing really high up the pitch and winning the ball in danger areas.
You can only see them adding to their lead if the pattern continues like this. Spurs look utterly clueless in comparison.
More solid defending from Thiago Silva to keep Spurs firmly at bay.
A really poor opening half an hour from the hosts, who could lose three successive Premier League matches for the first time since November 2012 without significant improvement.
A smart turn from Mount, who then drags a low left-footed shot wide of the far post.
Thiago Silva stretches for an impressive interception, but looks to have hurt himself in the process.
The Brazilian, 36, has stayed down in a heap and is now receiving treatment. This doesn’t look good.
Pretty clear that Thiago Silva isn’t going to be able to continue here.
With Kurt Zouma out also, Andreas Christensen is preparing to come on for Chelsea.
With the right side of his shorts rolled up, Thiago Silva gingerly limps off with just under 10 minutes still remaining in this first half.
Tuchel gives a sympathetic pat on the back as the former Paris Saint-Germain stalwart trudges off and down the tunnel for treatment.
Christensen is on.
Mourinho can point to another individual error as the reason Spurs trail but they have been absolutely clueless with and without possession.
In the absence of Reguilon and Kane they are completely unable to progress the ball and the front three look short of ideas when they do get it. That’s all for now from Tottenham vs Chelsea. Please subscribe, like, share and comment. Thanks for watching.
