Chelsea draw Tottenham in dramatic pre-season clash

In the friendly match before the new 2021/2022 season, Chelsea and Tottenham gave the audience an exciting match at Stamford Bridge.

In the last pre-season friendly against Tottenham, Chelsea fielded almost their strongest squad with all their best players. Meanwhile, Tottenham also had almost their best squad (only missing Harry Kane).

Chelsea started better and they opened the scoring in the 16th minute, Ziyech breaking through 30 yards before firing a low shot past Tottenham's new goalkeeper Gollini. Then Timo Werner had a chance to score against Tottenham but the goal was ruled out for offside. Replays showed the referee was wrong.

Early in the second half, Ziyech completed his double in the 49th minute with another impressive shot, raising the score to 2-0 for The Blues. At this point, coach Tuchel took turns withdrawing the pillars of the Chelsea squad to rest.

That created an opportunity for Tottenham to rise strongly. In the 56th minute, Lucas Moura shortened the gap to 1-2 for the visitors with a shot that hit the Chelsea defender's leg and went into the net. In the 70th minute, the score was equalized 2-2 for Tottenham after Bergwijn's shot went through the legs of goalkeeper Mendy. Towards the end of the match, Tottenham had a good chance to complete the comeback but Ben Davies' shot was blocked by Ethan Ampadu on the goal line.

After a 2-2 draw with Tottenham, Chelsea will officially start the new season with the European Super Cup against Villarreal on August 11 while Tottenham will have another friendly against Arsenal on August 8.

Negotiations between Man City and Aston Villa have been underway since last week. The Villa Park team was quickly convinced by the price offered by the partner. Grealish will sign a contract with the "Citizens" until June 2026.

Grealish is a player with impressive speed and technique. He can play on the left wing or move into the middle as an attacking midfielder. In the 2020/21 season, the English player started 24 matches, scored 6 goals and assisted 10 times. Grealish's injury in the final stages caused Aston Villa to fall behind in the race for a European Cup ticket.
