A disappointing end to an excellent game.
In the first London derby of the 22/23 season in the Premier League, Chelsea and Tottenham said their goodbyes this evening (Sunday) with an exciting 2:2, when at the end Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte provided an unsportsmanlike moment, to say the least.
Let's start with what happened deep inside the added time.
Chelsea led 1:2 and seemed to be on the safe way to victory, but then came Harry Kane, who scored the dramatic equalizer in the 95th minute and arranged for both teams to share points.
After the final whistle, Conte and Tuchel approached each other to shake hands, and the latter simply refused to let go while deliberately hurting the Tottenham coach, slapping him with "look me in the eye".
Immediately the two coaches began to quarrel and had to separate them in front of everyone present.

Even before that, there was also a game.
In the 19th minute, Marc Kokoria, the talented left-back who arrived from Brighton, picked up an accurate corner kick into the box, and Kalidou Koulibaly emerged from behind and with all his heart and soul slammed in his debut goal in blue.
Pierre-Emile Hoyberg equalized for the Roosters in the 68th minute, but this tie lasted only nine minutes.
A Chelsea interception reached the feet of Raheem Sterling, and the former Manchester City player set up Rhys James for the second goal, which he also did not hold until the end.
