Tottenham win 2-0 at Stamford Bridge

Tottenham Hotspur beat Chelsea 2-0 in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, 24 October 2026. A Mike Penders own goal in the 77th minute and Mathys Tel’s finish in the 87th secured the away win. Cole Palmer was dismissed after a second yellow card during the closing stages.

A tight match turns in Tottenham’s favour

The opening phase remained closely contested. Chelsea’s official account says Cole Palmer and Jordan Henderson tested Antonín Kinsky, while Mike Penders made saves to keep out Omar Marmoush and Mathys Tel. Sky Sports reported that Tottenham had 70 per cent of the first-half possession and also highlighted Kinsky’s saves from Palmer, Henderson and Morgan Rogers. Those accounts describe a match in which Tottenham had sustained control but Chelsea still created clear opportunities.

Two late goals settle the derby

Tottenham moved in front in the 77th minute. Mateus Fernandes delivered a corner, and Penders punched the ball into his own goal while under pressure from Jan Paul van Hecke. Palmer was then sent off after receiving a second yellow card. With Chelsea down to 10 players, Tottenham added a second goal in the 87th minute. Tel carried the ball forward from inside his own half and finished low into the corner, as described by ESPN.

Micky van de Ven wears the armband

Micky van de Ven captained Tottenham in this fixture. The club’s official confirmed line-up lists “van de Ven (c)”. Tottenham also named him men’s first-team captain for the 2026/27 season in its 22 August announcement. His role as captain is established independently of the cover photograph, which will be identified as a historical editorial portrait rather than an image from this match.

Tottenham’s second Premier League win at Chelsea

ESPN described the result as Tottenham’s second Premier League victory at Stamford Bridge. The final score and both late goals are supported by the two clubs’ match reports and independent coverage. The away side finished with a clean sheet, while Chelsea were left to reflect on the own goal and Palmer’s dismissal.
