JAKARTA - Chelsea beat London city rivals Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 thanks to Antonio Rudiger's goal to complete a 3-0 aggregate win in the League Cup semi-final on Thursday.
Leading 2-0 in last week's first leg at Stamford Bridge, defender Rudiger set Tottenham up against an increasingly difficult mountain to climb when he scored the goal that led to Mason Mount's corner in the 18th minute.

Tottenham fought hard to maintain hope in this competition. However, it appeared that this match was not theirs as the two penalty opportunities awarded in both halves by referee Andre Mariner were canceled out following intervention from VAR.
As reported by Antara, Spurs' suffering was even more severe when Harry Kane's goal was also ruled out for offside, also after VAR intervention.
