Xabi Alonso Takes Responsibility After Chelsea’s 2-0 Home Defeat to Tottenham

Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso accepted responsibility after his side lost 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Chelsea created several good chances but could not beat Spurs goalkeeper Antonín Kinský. Tottenham went ahead in the second half after an own goal by goalkeeper Mike Penders. Cole Palmer was then sent off for a second yellow card before Mathys Tel scored late to seal the win. Alonso said the entire squad must take responsibility for a performance he felt fell below the level shown in recent victories over Bournemouth and Everton. He urged the team to reflect on the defeat and improve in their next matches.
