Jadon Sancho put on a show at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday as The Blues ran riot. 4-3 read the final score as Cole Palmer claimed the Player Of The Match award. Despite the No. 20 taking the spotlight, another English star also attracted praise from fans, as he sent a strong message to parent club Manchester United after the win.

The player is none other than Man United ‘reject’ Jadon Sancho, who joined Chelsea on loan at the start of the season. The 24-year-old stunned the crowd with a brilliant goal in the 17th minute, thereby initiating the comeback for his side.

Jadon Sancho reveals what Enzo Maresca told his players to inspire comeback

Following the game, Sancho spoke to the press as he revealed what the manager told them during the halftime break.

Going in at half-time, the gaffer was telling us we were in the game. I have so much belief in the players. The gaffer told us to stay wide and create the one-on-ones.

Maresca also made headlines for patching things up with Marc Cucurella, who was directly responsible for both of Tottenham’s goals in the first half.

Even though The Blues sit in second spot with 31 points from 15 games, the Italian has time and again stressed that the club isn’t in the title race. Chelsea’s next game is against Astana in the Conference League before taking on Brentford at home four days later. The Blues trail League leaders Liverpool by just four points.
