Chelsea against Tottenham has not disappointed as the first half delivered nothing but chaos.
Spurs fans would’ve been confident that they would regain their spot at the top of the Premier League table after Dejan Kulusevski opened the scoring for his side inside ten minutes.
But a moment of madness from Cristian Romero gave the referee no choice but to send him off and award a penalty to the visiting team.
Cole Palmer dispatched from 12 -yards and the game was even but fans claim that Spurs were lucky not to already have seen two red cards.
Destiny Udogie jumped in two-footed on Raheem Sterling before Romero kicked out at Levi Colwill.
Romero is a red if we’re being consistent with the Curtis Jones red. However, Udogie’s was worse and so was Kovacic’s against Arsenal.

For the love of God, scrap VAR, the game is on it’s knees.
Romero & Udogie should be off and if this isn’t a penalty…Good god almighty.

The fact both Romero and Udogie have avoided sending offs here is absolutely horrific.
You cannot give me one difference between Udogie’s challenge and Jones’, while Romero clearly kicks out. The lack of consistency is baffling. What’s the point?
