Jamie Carragher absolutely loses his head and calls out Marc Cucurella for 'embarrassing' antics after Spurs' second goal

Jamie Carragher called out Marc Cucurella after Tottenham Hotspur made it 2-0 against Chelsea.

On Sunday afternoon, Spurs welcomed London rivals Cheslea to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium looking to end their three-match winless streak.

Cheslea meanwhile were looking to move to second place in the Premier League table after Arsenal dropped points at Craven Cottage, where they were held to a 1-1 draw by Fulham.

Enzo Maresca's men will also cut Liverpool's lead at the top to just four points if they manage to beat Spurs, after the Merseyside Derby on was called off on Saturday morning.

Ange Postecoglou's men got off to a perfect start after goals from Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski made it 2-0.

Chelsea defender Cucurella was partly at fault for both of Spurs' goals after he lost his footing and allowed his opponent to regain possession.

On the back of Kulusevski's goal, Cucurella was seen rushing towards the touchline to change his boots.

Which left former Liverpool and England defender Carragher furious.

Speaking on Sky Sports, commentator Carragher said: "Cucurella's coming to the bench, don't blame anyone else - it's your own fault son! Absolute schoolboy stuff. Embarrassing.

"He slips again. Look at him shrugging his shoulders. Did he not do a warm-up?"

However, despite his early mishaps, Cucurella's change of boots did him a world of good as he recorded an assist for Jadon Sancho, who scored to with a beautiful long range effort to make it 2-1 with 17 minutes on the clock.

On Sancho's goal, Carragher said: "This is just outstanding from Sancho. He sets it outside the goalkeeper and they're back in the game."

Former Republic of Ireland striker Clinton Morrison said on BBC Radio 5 Live: "Sancho has definitely got his mojo back. All he needs is a bit of loving.

"That is just as good as Kulusevski's finish. That is a great goal. What a football match."
