"Tottenham were defeated at the weekend by Enzo Maresca's Chelsea, losing out on home turf to their close rival by a goal to nil. Joao Pedro's first-half strike proved the difference at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Frank's side recorded their second loss in the space of a week. Spurs had travelled to the north-east days earlier where they faced Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup Fourth Round, a game in which the Magpies eliminated Frank and his team."
"Chelsea's visit to North London gave Spurs the opportunity to get back to winning ways against a local rival, however, that did not transpire as the Blues returned to the west of the city with all three points. At full-time, defenders Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence were caught on camera expressing their discontent at the outcome of the match as they approached head coach Frank. The Spurs pair walked past the Tottenham boss, despite Frank's attempts to console them."
