Ten-man Tottenham beat Chelsea 2-1 in Sydney
Richarlison struck in stoppage time after Kevin Danso’s red card left Tottenham a man down and Chelsea unable to finish their chances.
- On Saturday, Tottenham defeated London rivals Chelsea 2-1 in a pre-season friendly at Stadium Australia in Sydney, with club record signing Sandro Tonali scoring early and Brazil striker Richarlison adding a 90th-minute winner.
- More than 80,000 fans attended the competitive contest at Accor Stadium, which mirrored a Premier League meeting despite being staged thousands of miles from London as both teams fielded strong lineups.
- Tonali struck first on 17 minutes with a deflected shot off Levi Colwill, but Estevao Willian leveled the scores shortly after, heading in a cross from Jamie Gittens at the back post.
- Tottenham defender Kevin Danso received a straight red card four minutes into the second half, but goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky made two outstanding saves before Richarlison's stoppage-time strike secured the win.
- The defeat marks the first loss for new Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso, who heads to Hong Kong on Wednesday for a scheduled clash against Juventus.
