Tottenham rescued a draw against Chelsea, with a last-minute goal by Harry Kane, and the end of the match sparked another clash between coaches Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte.

An agonizing goal by Harry Kane determined the 2-2 draw between Tottenham and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in a new edition of the London Derby. The match had heated tempers and there was a confrontation between the coaches at the end: Thomas Tuchel, from the 'Blues'; and Antonio Conte, from the 'Spurs'; faced each other after shaking hands abruptly.

The 'Hurrikane' goal came just after Marc Cucurella's claims for a foul in the box, due to the hair pull by Cristian Romero. Referee Anthony Taylor had a brief chat with VAR and indicated that there was no infraction, so the game continued.

The goal didn't leave much time for activity on the field and the parity was consummated, which gave way to farewell greetings from the protagonists. Precisely, Thomas Tuchel, who was furious about Conte's celebration in the partial 1-1, took the initiative to approach his colleague.

Chelsea's coach quickly shook hands with his Tottenham counterpart, but did so forcefully and did not let go, provoking the anger of the Italian. Immediately, Antonio, who had a standout coaching stint with the 'Blues', tried to break free and confronted the German strategist, unleashing the massive conflict.

According to television footage, Tuchel was demanding that his colleague tell him things while looking into his eyes, while the rest of the Chelsea and Tottenham staff entered to separate them. Finally, after a strong exchange of words, a little calmness arrived, although that did not prevent both coaches from being expelled.
