He suffered two disaster moments in the derby, slipping in the build-up to both Spurs goals in the first ten minutes before Chelsea staged a stunning comeback.
A fuming Cucurella charged across the pitch after Dejan Kulusevski made it 2-0 and swapped boots.
After the game, the Spaniard posted a snap of his pair of Puma Future 8s in the bin alongside the caption: "Sorry Blues."
The boots were set to be released by the sportswear brand the following day.

And they were even engraved with the message: "This boot might be leaked. We're used to it. Don't worry. Stay tuned."
It looked to be a marketing own goal but Puma have brilliantly responded.
In a new advert posted on social media, Cucurella is wearing the boots alongside a caution wet floor sign.
Puma wrote with the image: "It’s not how you slip, it’s how you bounce back."
