Chelsea crush Tottenham and share the lead in the English Premier League

 Chelsea made a superb performance in the second half to beat Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 with goals by Thiago Silva, N'Golo Kante and Antonio Rudiger, and shared the lead in the English Premier League on Sunday.

There were no signs of this great victory during the first half, but Chelsea completely controlled the game after the break and confirmed that it would be one of the most prominent candidates for the title.

Thiago advanced with a header in the 49th minute, and substitute Kante added a goal with a shot that changed direction and deceived goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

Rudiger concluded the treble at the last moments, bringing Chelsea to 13 points from five games and sharing the summit with Liverpool, where the two teams scored 12 goals against receiving one goal for each.

Manchester United is third on goal difference
