Tottenham Hotspur 3 - 1 Chelsea: 3 takeaways from the game | Premier League 2018-19

#1 Unbeaten run ends for Sarri

Sarri finally lost in the Premier League

Maurizio Sarri made his reputation at Napoli as a manager who believed in quick possessional football and preferred playing attacking football throughout the 90 minutes. The Italian got the fans excited as they could see the team transforming from a defensive to a much more forward-minded side.

Before this match, the Blues, along with Manchester City and Liverpool were twelve games unbeaten in the Premier League. However, recent performances worried the manager, who believed that his side wasn't playing the way he would want them to.

Against Spurs, Maurizio Sarri's side lacked purpose from the start and never really managed to trouble the opposition at any point in the game. The defeat finally ended Chelsea's unbeaten run in the Premier League and all competitions as well. The Italian would hope it was a bad day at the office and the team performs better in the upcoming games.
