Chelsea made a spectacular comeback, Leicester won the championship early!

(Baonghean.vn)- The dramatic derby between the two London giants Chelsea and Tottenham ended in a 2-2 draw. Once again, Chelsea made Tottenham leave Stamford Bridge in bitterness by indirectly helping the "Rooster's" opponent to the throne earlier. Leicester City has officially sat on the throne.Premier League 2015-2016.

Before the match, many people were skeptical that The Blues could stand firm against the strength and desire to win of their opponents. And even when the ball had been on the field for 2/3 of the match, that doubt was still imprinted in the minds of the fans.

However, the “motherland” Stamford Bridge promptly opened its arms to protect and give strength to the brave “blue warriors”. That’s right, Chelsea not only protected the honor of a “big guy”, the honor of a derby was extended, but also made the “hateful neighbor” Tottenham shed the most bitter tears in the 26-year history of visiting Stamford Bridge. Ironically, the person who helped Tottenham beat Chelsea the last time (February 1990) was Gary Lineker, who was once a legend of the “new King” Leicester City.

Back to the match, in Chelsea's lineup in this match, coach Hiddink prioritized using the central midfield pair Mikel - Matic to guard the defense. However, this system could not be effective until Hazard and Oscar replaced them in the second half. Meanwhile, captain and central defender John Terry had his first start since March. On Tottenham's side, Son Heung-Min, the midfielder known as "Korean Ronaldo", was trusted by coach Pochettino to fill the position left by "Best Young Player of the Premier League 2015/2016" - Dele Alli, (currently serving a 3-match suspension).

"Korean Ronaldo" Son Heung-Min coolly finished to help Tottenham take a two-goal lead.

Right after the opening whistle, the motivation for the race to the Premier League championship with the "Foxes" made Tottenham push up their squad with the determination to break the "curse" and search for a "miracle" at Stamford Bridge. Meanwhile, Chelsea also refused to give in to protect their honor. That made the match dramatic and attractive when the two teams fought fiercely for the ball, exchanging blows. There were 7 yellow cards drawn by the referee (Vertonghen, Rose, Lamela, Eriksen, Dier (Tottenham) and Willian, Ivanovic (Chelsea) proving the fierceness of this London derby.

The home team had better control of the ball but determination and a clear head helped Tottenham play effectively, they took a two-goal lead in the first half. In the 35th minute, "killer" H. Kane opened the score for the match when he skillfully tricked goalkeeper Begovic from a smart pass from Son Heung-Min. "Old Korean Ronaldo" had an excellent day when he scored to help "The Rooster" take a two-goal lead, after an assist in exactly 9 minutes.

The surprise happened in the second half when Chelsea brought Hazard and Oscar on and pushed up the squad with the determination to find an equalizer. In the end, Chelsea succeeded thanks to a more coherent, diverse and fast attacking style. In the 58th minute, center-back Cahill had a very quick shot, at close range after a poor clearance by a Tottenham player, shortening the score to 1-2 for the home team. As the match time passed into the final minutes, fans began to think of a miracle for the away team. However, football always brings surprises and excitement that make some laugh, others cry. Hazard was the one who created that when he had a beautiful curling shot into the top corner of Tottenham's goal, from a hard-fought pass from Diego Costas, in the 83rd minute.

Chelsea made a spectacular comeback, helping Leicester win the championship early.

Remember, a week ago, midfielder Eden Hazard himself affirmed that "Chelsea wants Leicester to win the Premier League more than Tottenham". Hazard's statement was understood to mean that when The Blues could not successfully defend the title, they wanted another team outside of London to win the English championship, not the hateful "neighbors" like Tottenham or Arsenal. Many people were skeptical of that statement until... Hazard himself put an end to Totteham.

Chelsea made a spectacular comeback, all of Tottenham's efforts were wasted, and they had to look up in longing and pain when the Golden Throne belonged to the "Foxes" with 2 rounds to go. That is the harsh truth that will never be erased in the most unfortunate chapters of Tottenham's history.
