Eric Dier brilliantly cleared off the line Alonso’s effort in the 53rd minute.
Four minutes later, N’Golo Kante saw his shit deflects off Eric Dier, hits the post and goes in.
Tottenham hoping on final whistle at this as Chelsea kept coming stronger with threatening chances, but Antonio Rudiger said it’s not over yet when completed the rout for Chelsea two minutes into added time.
Chelsea are now joint top of the league with 13 points from a possible 15 to start the season.
