    So many chances squandered by Palace.

    An easy 2nd yellow missed by Swarbrick though.

      He got that entire sequence so wrong. Not sure what was going through his head. He should have just called the obvious foul where Mane's shielding the ball and gets pulled back and bumped to the ground.

          Great move by Poch to switch Alli and Son at half. Son is not as good when he's a lone striker. He's been much better on the wing this half.

            Bit of a risk bringing Kane on here up 3-1.

              Shows how important this game is. Spurs are terrible at trying to defend a lead without attacking and with the history of Spurs at Chelsea, this game is far from over.

                Spurs have gotten away with a couple awful tackles that weren't even called fouls.

                  Huge win, obviously for top 4 but also to give Spurs confidence over Chelsea if they meet in the FA cup final.

                    True, but that Moses handball is easily forgotten...

                      You just have to accept those comments. Literally every Spurs win has a referrence to dirty tackles they got away with. Some justified, others not.

                        I mean, handball is just a penalty while Spurs should have had 2 players off.

                        Are you saying Lamela and Vertonghen shouldn’t have been sent off?

                          Sent off? Come on now not even the NBC announcers who love sending people off would go that far.

                          You're stooping to Liverpool fan levels with that comment, come on! [emoji3]

                            If Hazard’s leg is planted it’s broken. It’s accidental, but a foul doesn’t have to be intentional to be a red card.

                            Lamela had one on Cesc earlier that was arguably worse. Especially when you consider the history of the two players.

                            I’ve actually defended you guys several times to Liverpool fans this season. I don’t think you are a dirty team in general, but you guys have gotten away with several very bad challenges this season that a lot of your fans seem to want everyone to just gloss over.

                              I admit Spurs, like every team have gotten away with fouls. It just grows tiring how that's the first thing everyone mentions after a game, deserved or not. It's almost like a "boy cries wolf" instance now.

                              I think Verts and Lamela should have been given yellows but the ref was letting everything go today.

                              As for the handball, I'm not an expert on the handball rules but I don't think that's a penalty. He was falling and his hand hit it in a way that didn't look intentional at all.

                                I thought the ref and Willy were woefully out of position for most of the match
