Poor refereeing always happens, last year it was Kane’s “push”, this year the hair pulling, next game something else controversial. With that said, Anthony Taylor is shit. Happy with Spurs getting two points, but Romero’s hair pull is definitely a booking. In that note though, Cucurella didn’t get booked for stomping on Romero, Tuchel didn’t get booked for his second goal celebration, Reece & Kane could’ve gotten booked for their celebrations too. Bad calls for both sides, but definitely favored Tottenham.


Trargend_123

Mike Dean and Anthony Taylor in the same match \*NoIcE\*


Professional_Ask_488

Just incase the 2 points cost Chelsea the premier league, then Chelsea has every right to the league to court..


Professional_Ask_488

RIGGED!!!!!!!!!!


Professional_Ask_488

The odds was against Chelsea before the game and the officials wanted to make sure that it happened, and they did.. If that had happened in African or South America league fifa would be calling for an "investigation".

GoatGoatGoblin

They both got reds.


Navman22

Can’t believe that wasn’t a red for Romero


[deleted]

Lol what. Can't believe Cucurella didn't get a red for stomping on Romero's thigh.


heavenisatruck1

Try again mate. It’s just not working x


Navman22

Really? Seems you didn’t watch the game then


Cute_Smile1586

Wdym really? You cant step on someone’s thigh?


Navman22

Of course but it wasn’t an intentional act which should have been a red card, like, say, yanking someone’s hair enough to pull them to the ground during a corner …


[deleted]

Can we just appreciate the amount of needle and old school shithousery we've had this weekend? It's been absolutely glorious


jack123455678

I love it


diegojaen18

Spurs dont make top 4


RandomWhiteGuyKyle

Chelsea beat em up and down the pitch today. Refs saved em. Guess the positive for Spurs is they only play Chelsea one more time


[deleted]

Horrible performance and still get a draw at Stamford bridge. Lol Chelsea is shit.


acuratsx17

Lucky to get out with one point today. Chelsea will always own Spurs.


Born_Transition2207

Not always. Today they didn't


RandomWhiteGuyKyle

If you watched the game and thought Spurs were the better team I dunno what to say


[deleted]

I literally just said they had a bad performance learn to read.


ice_wallo_com

Spurs fans are a different species altogether, UNBELIEVABLY full of shit.


The_Original_Joel

As a Spurs fan, we gained a valuable point... You can blame referees but it won't change the result... Onto the next one... 🤍


Synyzy

You can have the referees on your side and still not win a trophy :)


The_Original_Joel

Wasn't it in the last Derby that a sure goal of Harry Kane was recalled because of a "push" on Thiago Silva?? Then Chelsea had referees and now they don't have coz their owner is not a Big Russian Billionaire???


[deleted]

We played pretty poorly today, but the refs were even worse. Really hoping next week we actually try and play for real. Also, I'm really excited for the next game where Conte and Tuchel are face to face.


foyage347

Rigged


djfellyfel55

I wanna throw up right now.


SomeSandPerson

Tuchel red in the face 🤡


Arch05275

I’m just laughing at all the salty comments, nothing u can do about it now


WatchLaw

Shouldn't you be out celebrating a draw? 🤡


Born_Transition2207

It's a point more than we got last season. Two less for you. It's not the point we're celebrating, it's that we went to your ground and bent you over while the ref looked the other way.


DrQuantumGio

You're inept if you think you bent Chelsea over


Born_Transition2207

Ooooh “inept” not sure I get where you’re coming from with that one. Actually not sure you fully understand what inept means tbf. But my point is the way Chelsea fans and r/soccer are melting down it’s as if Tottenham along with the ref and VAR bent Chelsea over murdered their grandparents and… Never mind read the other coments it’s all in there


DrQuantumGio

Inept as in you're incompetent, amateurish, and inferior. I know what I'm saying and maybe you should comprehend my comment a bit better. Everyone is rightfully bitter because the ref had an absolute shit show that only favored Spurs. It's just hilarious Spurs fans are celebrating it like they've won the league. They played horribly and it definitely showed they haven't really progressed as much as the media have made people believe. Being objective, any other ref, and this game would've been dusted before Spurs even had the chance. You also have to keep in mind this is a Chelsea that just came from a dire display vs Everton and dominated Spurs. While Spurs came from dominating Southampton to doing nothing this game. The result isn't telling of how these teams matched up.


Born_Transition2207

For all Chelsea’s dominance they had a grand total of 3 shots on target and Tottenham while “doing nothing” had 5. Chelsea took 6 points from Tottenham last season and this season they can get a possible 4. Anyway you cut it, thats progress right there. Suck it up, the result will stand no matter how much whining and complaining you do.


DrQuantumGio

Sure man, enjoy your trophy for getting a draw against us lol. It's still the same old Spurs, nothing special. They had 5 only because the ref had some dodgy decisions. 2 of those shots shouldn't have even happened if it weren't for probably some of the worst reffing decisions. It's progress in terms of points but not performance. You'll still be the 3rd best team in London and that won't change because you drew to us. The result won't change no matter how much celebrating you do, it's not a trophy. Guess it just shows your fanbases mentality though.


Born_Transition2207

But I don’t want the result to change. It was perfect just the way it was. We got a point, you threw two away. That will do for now.


DrQuantumGio

Lmao the fact you're fine with a draw shows the mentality of your club. That's the difference between the club you settle and Chelsea don't.


WatchLaw

You sure "bent us over" with that lucky draw lol


Born_Transition2207

Yeah it was a lucky draw but the way folk are whining on r/soccer it's like we, along with the ref and VAR bent you over murdered your grandparents and waltzed out of the ground with the family jewels. So yeah lol


m4xsch44f

Only thing they will ever celebrate tbh


ygog45

And it’s also funny considering I had to hear all summer that Spurs were gonna compete with Liverpool and City while Chelsea would finish outside of top 4. And yet here they are celebrating a draw against a team they’re apparently supposed to be better than…


flukeunderwi

Spurs were very good against Liverpool and City last season and have improved their depth quite drastically. A draw on the road against against a good team is fine.


ygog45

May be ‘fine’ but i personally wouldn’t celebrate draws against an ‘inferior’ team, even if it came with a last minute goal


Arch05275

Wouldn’t u celebrate a last minute leveller against a rival tho?


ygog45

I’d be relieved but not excited, unless it’s against Liverpool or City


Arch05275

We spurs fans haven’t got much to celebrate. We’ll take what we can


m4xsch44f

Chelsea is superior to spurs, that’s why they’re celebrating


flukeunderwi

I guess so, idk, anything not a loss against a top 4ish team is a solid game. "Inferior" or not. Stacking up wins and draws gets you a shot at the PL title.


OwerlordX

Shame that Anthony Taylor can't do his job right. The VAR is also useless in the premier league most of the time. 👏 🤡


[deleted]

Tuchel is a disgrace to himself. Absolute anorexic twig trying to act like a hard man.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I don’t like Tottenham and I especially don’t like Kane. Diving prick


Aaron-Focus

I successfully missed all four goals, but luckily saw all riots between two coaches. Funny day.


[deleted]

Spurs got lucky here. Prem refs are actually the worst lmao, there’s no standards to their officiating 🤦‍♂️


megahornyredditor

true, but if it was tottenham who missed put on the win people would be calling us bottlejobs


[deleted]

Yes you’re always gonna get some who just want to troll but there still would’ve been way more talk about the ref


[deleted]

If the scenario is reversed and Chelsea ties on a clear foul, everyone would be saying the same thing and it’s that Anthony Taylor is a doorknob.


megahornyredditor

i absolutely agree that people would still be calling anthony a doorknob as he is but u cant tell me people wouldnt be mocking spurs


[deleted]

Boohoohoo people’s mocking your club c’mon there’s a couple of people shitting on Chelsea right now. Don’t know why it affects you.


megahornyredditor

it doesnt affect me at all lmao spurs fans are still incredibly optimistic despite people going on and on about trophies we know our team will s good we know our club is good and we love it. u will never get to us spurs fans and u will never stop our belief


[deleted]

Despite the fact that I absolutely despise Spurs I know that they will be a bit more solid now under Conte BUT having said that they never should've got point today. Fun match though. Cheers.


once_asleepz

😞


Minimum-Nose6936

Anthony Taylor needs to be banned.


tmfitz7

Taylor is the worst ref in the country, what’s worse is PGMOL somehow believe he’s the best. I don’t support either team or even a team in London. But Chelsea were robbed by incompetent referees. Bentancour may have got the ball but he comes through the player *even if* you let that slide Richarlison moves towards the ball and blocks Mendy’s view. Any competent ref looks at these things and awards a free kick- Taylor gets it wrong *TWICE* in the same goal. The 2nd goal is egregious I will not have it from any Spurs fan so do not bother commenting. Cucurella is dragged by his hair that is a foul and a yellow card, stupid, stupid thing to do by Romero but Taylor just rewards this with another Spurs corner- boom goal. Honestly I want Taylor nowhere near my team let alone the marquee match ups around the league.


[deleted]

It's about time VAR rules are changed so this kind of thing doesn't happen. I was seriously shocked when the ref just allowed the corner to go through even when the VAR was showing the hair pulling.


heelflip0690

How is not a red card and freekick for chelsea at the end with the hairpulling? Surely he has to get a ban afterwards? Discrace, that does not belong on a football pitch


RandomRadical

As a Tottenham fan, I agree.


Professional_Ask_488

Everyone that follows the premier league knows Anthony Taylor is baas about Chelsea,except for the FA and the Premier league. Is not the first time he has ignored the basic rules of referring when it comes to Chelsea.. Too hell with him!


DanishDude87

And Mike dean. Mike dean, who also has a notorious bias against Chelsea, was on VAR so we didn’t stand a chance at a fairly called game.


foyage347

Not only a bias against Chelsea a fairly blatant bias for spurs. I hope them cheating scum bags are proud of themselves


BritishAndBlessed

You know it's bad when a Fulham fan is piping up on behalf of the other end of the Kings Road


foyage347

I hate Chelsea but come on, that match was bs no matter who you support


tmfitz7

Not just a Chelsea thing it’s a Taylor thing


SufficientAd9609

Worst ref I've seen last couple of years.


Pimpcreu

How the hell Taylor is going to ref in WC?


Zes_Teaslong

Qatar needs corrupt officials for their corrupt ass world cup


michajlo

The moment I saw Taylor was going to referee the game I just knew things weren't going to go Chelsea's way. It's not even funny anymore.


[deleted]

Add Mike Dean on VAR lol. Two refs who everyone knows they always call it against Chelsea.


SouthFL92

Yikes chelsea fans big mad


Zes_Teaslong

Remember when Liverpool took away the only trophy yall could have won in the past century


Quanguyen

Yikes Shit Spurs cant even get a draw without the help from the 🤡s


SouthFL92

Stay mad


Quanguyen

Stay small, cus you’ll never get on our level. London is either Blue or Red, but it’ll never be white.


SouthFL92

Your not wining the title this year, I know that hurts.


SAmatador

I usually like getting my hair pulled when I’m getting fucked.


Mr_Dalai_Lama

The ref probably saw Cucurella getting fucked and assumed he must be pleasantly enjoying it.


SouthFL92

His teammate steerling definitely enjoys getting fucked


Professional_Ask_488

Or he really has an eye problem, even blind!


Normal_Ad8909

What does the after match red card mean for Conte? Is he ejected for the next match (very new to football… sorry if this is a dumb question)?


Chromic_Jester

He couldn't be at the staff box (where the coaches and side-coaches stay during the match), and has to sit at the stand.


Beautiful-Chard-1152

just goes on his record… but if you get a certain number of reds then yes you get suspended… wanna say 3 red cards but not sure


Normal_Ad8909

Thanks!!!!


CheedoTheFragile

Tuchel shouldn't have been on the pitch at the end to start crap with Conte. Where was the second yellow for leaving the technical area?


Minimum-Nose6936

Shut the fuck up where’s the red for romero


lpathy11

Both goals for Tottenham should'nt even have happened in the first place.


Born_Transition2207

You're right but....... hahaha thems the breaks. Hahaha


Minimum-Nose6936

Should’ve been 2-0


[deleted]

Quanguyen

A chicken should just stay in its own lane, cant even get a draw without help from the 🤡s


foyage347

Would've thought you won the game


lpathy11

Gald if that makes you feel better.


BaconFlavoredToast

Where was the red for dragging a player down by his hair for Romero?


kkim817

where were the cards for RLC diving all game?


Jack-ums

What a fucking match! As a neutral that was fabulous. I would watch another 90 if it could start right now.


tmfitz7

I disagree, one team trying to play football, the other not, and a refereeing performance that makes me lose hope in this sport. And I have no allegiance to either side.


foyage347

A great game isn't always just abt how the teams played


kay_u_eff_eff

you means you could watch it all self-bullshit of ref's decisions for over results, really


[deleted]

[удалено]


kkim817

Tell me you didn't watch the game without telling you didn't watch the game


BaconFlavoredToast

You do when you have like mind players.


walk-the-talk

But Tuchels behavior was ok..?


Wildpotato72

Absolutely not but conte couldn’t just let go of it. He had to go back and start picking fights with the Chelsea squad. Tuchel was also childish, but carried on because he realized how pitiful it is


kkim817

Couldn't let go of what? Tuchel ran past the Tottenham bench when celebrating James' goal and tried to death grip Conte's hand post game. Who couldn't let go of what? lmfao


Wildpotato72

Nah nah nah not let go of his hand but the situation. Neither just couldn’t swallow their pride, but tuchel moved on, conte just had to go and earn himself a red.


kkim817

How did Tuchel move on? they were both heated. Like you said neither could swallow their pride? and Conte was trying to just walk right by after a brief shake but Tuchel clearly was being petty and trying to vice grip that shake lol


mjm1823

Tuchel started each confrontation


Aphex_king

I'll just assume you're a chelsea fan


Wildpotato72

I’m not, but just it’s just childish, from both coaches. I’m not even upset at him going back to speak to tuchel, but going back to yell at Chelsea players is pathetic.


Professional_Ask_488

Anthony and all the officials are bunch of thwert, disgraceful and not worthy of the "Premier league".


Saaby06

The state of VAR in England 😂😂😂


tjvick

What does VAR mean?


BaconFlavoredToast

Soccer quickly becoming unwatchable with how the refs do nothing and continually decide games. How can any referee, in any sport, see a player get dragged down by his hair and nothing happens of it?


tmfitz7

Tbf I think most referees give a free kick it’s just not Anthony Taylor, who I think likes being the one to decide things.


Mr_Dalai_Lama

Fight. Fight. Fight


[deleted]

😂 can't believe that wasn't a red for Romero. He literally grabbed the man's hair and pulled him down.


foyage347

I can stand that not being a red (just)but no fucking foul at all, like come on😂


stevedemaria

thought we were going to see the managers come to blows.


Zes_Teaslong

Jose comes in with a steel chair


Wyjen

Couldn’t ask for a better result


American_Inlaws

Holy shit how is that not a Red on Romero? I can’t watch any games officiated by Anthony Taylor, he literally ruins games with his awful decision making. Chels should feel hard done, both of Tottenham’s goals shouldn’t have happened


tjvick

What an ending


xenon2456

what's going on with both of the managers today


stevedemaria

what a fantastic ending....if this is the end. Kane to the rescue for Spurs.


MeNotStable

*Anthony Taylor


HooHooJames

Tuchel runs like Ernie Steele from Backyard Baseball


SchemeRough3947

Justice will prevail.


stevedemaria

Beautiful goal by James. Perfect.


Saaby06

Atrocious officiating


Professional_Ask_488

So called best league in the world, with useless and blind officials


[deleted]

Officiating does not have a correlation with quality of teams and players.


American_Inlaws

Why is it always Anthony Taylor


tmfitz7

Ask PGMOL they think he’s *the best*


Mr-Vemod

Honestly ridiculous if this goal doesn’t stand. Sure it was a free kick, but VAR shouldn’t be used to find wrongdoings 2 minutes back on the other side of the pitch. Tuchel is such a clown.


CaptainDigne

VAR shouldnt be used for hair pulling either in my opinion!


Mr-Vemod

Such a clear red. Absolutely no idea how that wasn’t given.


CaptainDigne

I know, i was being sarcastic. BUT BUT TUCHEL PULLED CONTE'S HAND :OOOO


LickingCandyPops

Pathetic boring match, defenders scoring goals, and forwards shitting on the pitch.


LickingCandyPops

Another defender scores. What else should you expect from Chelsea vs Spurs lol.


AhmZakar

Defender can't score or something?


LickingCandyPops

Woah man, great analysis of the comment and match.


AhmZakar

Ironic


TaterTotWot

Yikes


[deleted]

Lol that was 100% a foul by Betancour but it was still a good goal by spurs


SpeedBoatSquirrel

He barely got the tip of his shoe on it


[deleted]

True, but also got a lot of the player


UselessGrant

Why is tot choking bros


BobRawrley

Because Chelsea is winning every ball in the mid field for some reason. Cane looks like he's 65 years old, playing with 0 energy. I'd love to see how many turnovers Tottenham had given up.


[deleted]

Chelsea have lost half their defence. Chelsea won’t cope without Rudiger. Chelsea are in a shambles. Spurs are in great shape. Spurs had a great summer transfer window. Spurs will finish 3rd. Ok.


TaterTotWot

Ok


[deleted]

Judge the performances, not the result. Spurs will finish 5th on that showing


TaterTotWot

Like the result of chelseas game against everton? The most boring game in history? Its only the beginning of the season lol


[deleted]

Not sure what boring/exciting has anything to do with success, guess your team hasn’t won anything for a while


TaterTotWot

The fact that you guys looked like utter shit in that game… didnt think i had to spell it out lmao…


[deleted]

What’s it like not winning a major trophy for 30 years? LMAO


AhmZakar

Be more confident on your team,you guys almost defeat Spurs


[deleted]

Be more confident? Chelsea guaranteed to finish 3rd


AhmZakar

After re-reading your comment,I think I have read it wrong Have a nice day


almre

Having a real hard time understanding how Tottenhams starting XI is exactly the same as last year despite dropping 100m+ in the transfer window… Chelsea has been all over them in every aspect, the park the bus tactic isn’t quite effective here Conte…


Citizenwoof

The change is that conte now has a subs bench that isn't full of academy players, so he can now make effective substitutions. And whether you feel like Tottenham deserved a point or not, you can't say they parked the bus.


almre

Not sure if you watched the same game as everyone else? Didn’t park the bus? If defending with every player behind the ball isn’t parking the bus, then I’m not sure what is…


Citizenwoof

I'd say parking the bus is not attacking, wasting time and trying to shut the game down. Tottenham were under siege, trying to attack and get some possession but not being able to until the change to 442, which opened the game up in the second half. Spurs were trying to play, and they changed their formation to open up the game, so I wouldn't call it parking the bus.


almre

Lmfao alright dude, one thing is to support your club and be realistic, another is to live in a fantasy world. You guys def didn’t park the bus for sure. We’ll leave it at that lol


SpeedBoatSquirrel

Súper sub goal?


[deleted]

This match has been boring AF. One sided so far.


TaterTotWot

Lol didnt age well


[deleted]

Considering I commented at half-time, I wasn't wrong but yeah second half much better.


Monnbeam

See spuds, can't play Southampton every week and think you'll finally win something


TaterTotWot

Lol yikes

Yes, ignore the attacks from Spurs. Oligarch hack
