STATISTICS FULL MATCH
It was a FA Cup semi-last deserving of the opposition's history and the amazing setting of the new Wembley Stadium as Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur ran toe-to-toe with the Premier League pioneers overwhelming their rivals in a six objective thriller.
Astound determination Willian, picked to begin in front of Eden Hazard, scored twice in the principal half from a freekick and from the punishment spot before a few heavenly equalizers from Harry Kane and Dele Alli twice leveled the score.
Antonio Conte reshuffled his pack and found the objectives deserving of winning the match through the shooting boots of substitute Hazard and Nemanja Matic, arranged for by a change to a 3-5-2 development.
The following are five things gained from Chelsea's well battled 4-2 triumph over Spurs at Wembley.
1. Willian is precisely the kind of effect player Spurs need
There's a persuading contention that there is no side superior to Tottenham when at full-quality in the Premier League, particularly at home.
However at Wembley, Chelsea indicated why despite everything they hold favorable position over their adversaries because of their more prominent quality inside and out.
Willian would be a customary starter for Spurs. They attempted to sign him in the late spring of 2013. He even finished his therapeutic with the club before the Blues pulled off a masterstroke of exchange window villainy to grab him away to win the title and the League Cup under Jose Mourinho in 2015.
This season, under Conte, he has seen his part diminished. Willian has made only 13 begins in the Premier League, and has to a great extent turned into an effect sub since his group's change to a 3-4-2-1 development in October. He has turned into a magnificently solid extravagance that Chelsea, not at all like Spurs, can bear to have.
His nearness in the squad enabled Conte to leave Hazard on the seat as the Brazilian scored two first half objectives to send the Blues on their way.
Pochettino switched his side up as well. Kieran Trippier and Son Heung-min came in as the wing-maneuvers set up of Kyle Walker and Ben Davies, however it wasn't the same – the South Korean was a sorry excuse for an appointee down the left, yet more on that later. He gave away the punishment for Willian to secure.
Both Walker and Hazard touched base off the seat in the second half to supplant Son and Willian, individually, yet while one supervisor was settling a gap, the other was essentially capitalizing on the alternatives accessible to him. The Belgian went ahead and scored what was adequately the champ for Chelsea.
Regardless of the possibility that Spurs do have the best beginning XI, they don't have the kind of profundity that empowers Conte to pick and picked a player like Willian, as and when he is required.
2. Child is no wing-back
It was a striking call by Pochettino to play the free-scoring South Korean at wing-back yet the wrong one. His gambit turned out to be a strategic goof equivalent to the one made by Pep Guardiola before this season when he chose to attempt and stick Kevin De Bruyne in a comparative part in annihilation to Leicester prior this season. Manchester City were beaten 4-2.
Goads didn't endure that destiny at Wembley, in spite of the fact that Son gave away the punishment for Chelsea to retake their lead: he might not have a lot of a contact on Victor Moses however that doesn't make a difference. At the point when a player forgets his leg at this level, a great expert will dependably take him up on the offer of a free spot kick for his side.
The South Korean isn't a wing-back. In the second half, on came Kyle Walker with Trippier moving to one side. Maybe that ought to have been how Pochettino set his group out to begin the amusement?
3. Goads leave their most exceedingly awful mistakes for their greatest tests
Tottenham have the best barrier in the Premier League. Pochettino's side have yielded only 22 objectives in 32 amusements. Be that as it may, against their most difficult rivals, they have demonstrated a propensity to make their most bewildering goofs.
Chelsea's first objective at Wembley originated from a foul from Toby Alderweireld on the edges of his own case. Willian's shot was brilliant yet the Belgian gave him the opportunity.The Belgian has submitted only 16 fouls in 5,584 minutes of Premier League activity since marking for Spurs. He spared his most exorbitant infraction for the FA Cup semi-last.
Hugo Lloris experiences similar issues. It has been in recreations against any semblance of Manchester City and Liverpool this season the Frenchman has taken one bet an excessive number of or got his planning incorrectly.
Goads are not feeble willed, not under a director like Pochettino, but rather they need to deal with this skill for playing themselves into inconvenience best case scenario conceivable minutes.
4. Christian Eriksen: big game player
Toward the begin of the season, the Danish midfielder confronted feedback for his absence of finished result in a side excessively dependent on Harry Kane for objectives. His count for shots without scoring started to be held against him.
Be that as it may, some prominent exhibitions against mid-to-lower table restriction saw Eriksen all of a sudden hailed as the best sort of level track spook – a player fit for rebuffing the frail when the substantial hitters couldn't oversee it.
At that point, against Chelsea at White Hart Lane, he set up Dele Alli for both of his group's objectives as Spurs turned into the main side to beat the Blues in the class since their change to 3-4-2-1 with a 2-0 win. He pulled off a comparable trap at Wembley teeing up Kane and Dele to pull the score back with two remarkable equalizers.
Any questions over his attitude on the enormous events have now been suppressed, even in annihilation.
5. David Luiz the titan
Much has been made of the Brazilian's choice in the PFA Team of the Year in front of Alderweireld and club-mate Cesar Azpilicueta, and at Wembley he demonstrated his class as both a plug of threat at the back and a ball-playing stage from which to begin and fabricate moves.
Bar one nervous minute prior on he looked solid, formed and sharp – keeping his minds about him to pull off the shady, concealed demonstrations of shrewd safeguarding required to forestall aggressors picking up an edge. In a cautious three unsettled by the nonattendance of his normal accomplice Gary Cahill, Luiz guaranteed the matching of Nathan Ake and Azpilicueta close by him was sufficiently strong to hold.
A merited victor of the man of the match grant, there was undoubtedly who was the predominant focus back as he cleared out the field.
