What Marc Cucurella said about his mistakes and boot change in Chelsea’s win over Tottenham
Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella had a tough start in their London derby against Tottenham. His mistakes led to two goals for Spurs in the first 12 minutes, putting Chelsea in a difficult position.
Cucurella stumbled twice, allowing Tottenham to take advantage early. After his errors, he quickly changed his boots on the sideline, trying to improve his performance. Though he faced some criticism after joining Chelsea, he had been playing well this season, becoming a key part of the team.
Despite his mistakes, Chelsea made a strong comeback, with Cole Palmer scoring twice to secure a 3-2 win.
After the game, Cucurella posted a photo of his boots in a bin on Instagram, jokingly saying, “Sorry Blues!”
Thanks to Palmer’s brace, Cucurella’s errors didn’t cost the team the game. With the win, Chelsea is now closer to league leaders Liverpool and will look to keep up the momentum in upcoming matches against Astana in the Europa Conference League and Brentford in the Premier League.
