Chelsea managed to secure a vital win over their London rivals Tottenham as the Blues defeated the Spurs 2-1 in the Premier League on Saturday.

Olivier Giroud lashed in the opener after Ross Barkley's shot ricocheted back into the box off the post to give the Blues the lead after only fifteen minutes.

Only three minutes after the break, Marcos Alonso doubled the scoring when he smashed in a superb long-range strike after some good team play from the Blues.

Antonio Rudiger's late own-goal revived Spurs' hope in the game when Lamela dribbled into the Spurs box down the left.

He tried to roll a cross inside for Alli, but the ball clipped off Rudiger’s heel, and into the bottom left.
