COLE PALMER scored a Panenka as Chelsea fought back from TWO GOALS down to win in a thrilling London derby!
Spurs had taken the lead after Marc Cucurella slipped over TWICE during the build-up to TWO Tottenham goals in a thrilling first half - immediately changing his boots in comical fashion.
Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski took advantage of the errors by the defender but Jadon Sancho then fired a goal back for Chelsea before Palmer levelled from the penalty spot and Enzo Fernandez smashed in a half-volley.
Thee was late drama as Son scored a late goal but the Blues held on for a vital three points that keeps them second in the league.

Blues with chance to push leaders
Chelsea have a run of fixtures that, on paper, should allow them to pressure the sides around them.
While Maresca continues to play down his side being in a title race, they could be the team Liverpool are looking over their shoulders at.
It has been a while since they have had a happy Christmas at Stamford Bridge.

Tottenham feeling The Blues in North London
It really is a rollercoaster of emotions if you are a Spurs fan.
When they went two-nil up here, they were hoping to give another team a hiding like they did against Man City.
Sadly they folded and allowed Chelsea to punish them.
You could argue the turning point was Caicedo not getting sent off for his high challenge.
