Victory marked by arbitration controversies

This Wednesday, Chelsea beat Tottehham by the minimum away and thus obtained the pass to the final of the Carabao Cup. In the first leg they had already achieved it 2-0.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was the scene of this return match that ended with a global score of 0-3, but this time, everything would be defined with a goal from the German Antonio Rudiger.

The goal came after a corner and the German ends up pushing it with his hip and thus converting the final 0-1.

Chelsea awaits the winner of Liverpool vs Arsenal

It should be noted that Tottenham had one goal and two penalties disallowed. In the 45th minute, Rudiger commits a foul that at first was believed to be inside the area, but the VAR confirmed that it was made outside. In the 56th minute, goalkeeper Kepa, in a risky move, ended up committing a foul, but the VAR annulled it.

The last controversial situation was Harry Kane's disallowed goal, he beat the nets in the 63rd minute, but again the VAR changed the referee's decision, showing that the Englishman was offside.

The 'Blues' are finalists and await their rival who will be defined on January 20 in the second leg of the Carabao Cup Semifinal between Liverpool and Arsenal. The final match will take place on February 27 this year at Wembley.
