Chelsea four points behind Liverpool after 4-3 win over Tottenham

Cole Palmer scored twice from the penalty spot as Chelsea edged a 4-3 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

The hosts began the game in stunning fashion, racing into a two-goal lead thanks to Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski.

Jadon Sancho pulled one back before Palmer converted his first spot kick.

Chelsea then took the lead for the first time, with Enzo Fernandez firing in from inside the box.

Palmer scored again from 12 yards, while Son Heung-Min’s last-gasp goal was a mere consolation.

The result takes Chelsea clear of Arsenal in second place with 31 points.

The Gunners’ 1-1 draw at Fulham leaves them on 29 points in third place.

Champions Manchester City also drew 2-2 at Crystal Palace and are fourth with 27 points.
