Long before the end, gaps were appearing in the white half of Wembley. They had seen this show before. So had we all. The last time he was here Jose Mourinho served notice by winning the League Cup. The Premier League can consider itself told.
Ominously, the goal that made Chelsea comfortable was scored by Diego Costa. Out of sorts since his three-match ban, this was a return to form. He was niggly, irritating, but a striker that any manager in the league would love to have.
His goal needed assistance from a deflection off Kyle Walker, but it belonged to him, and no-one else. Striker’s gamble and that is what Costa did with his run – when the ball arrived, from lovely build-up work between Willian and Cesc Fabregas, he made Walker commit and stick a fateful foot out. Chelsea were 2-0 up after 56 minutes and, in this mood, that was the game over.
Chelsea Football Club see off Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 to lift the English League Cup thanks to John Terry and a Kyle Walker own goal.
Can they add the Premier League and #UCL to their season's trophy haul?
