Moses dangerous and determined as Chelsea's difference maker vs. Spurs

Chelsea remain top of the Premier League after defeating Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 in a thrilling London derby at Stamford Bridge. Christian Eriksen's blistering long-range strike gave Spurs a deserved early lead, but the Blues fought back and Pedro levelled just before half-time with a wonder goal of similar quality.

Chelsea upped the ante after the break and the man of the moment Victor Moses won the game with a show-stopping goal of his own. In doing so, Moses consigned Spurs to their first top-flight loss of the season while extending the Blues winning sequence to seven.

Positives

After six Premier League games without conceding a goal, going behind early against a visibly motivated Spurs side was a test of Chelsea's resolve, but the Blues battled back grittily, turned the game around and closed it out.
