Spens drops onto the field in a mask after his fight with Chelsi
In a match from the next round of the English Premier League, Tottenham gave Chelsea a chance, as reported by Zamin.uz.
The match turned out to be not only a defeat for the North Londoners, but also a serious loss to remember. During the game, Tottenham defender Jed Spens suffered an unexpected and serious injury.
In a collision with opposing player Liam Delap, a blow to the abdomen resulted in a broken rib for the footballer, as reported by Goal.
According to The Athletic, despite the severity of the injury, Spens expressed his desire to help his team in the season's final and decisive match. Medical staff are preparing a special protective mask for him to ensure his return to the field.
If the process goes as planned, Jed Spens is expected to participate in the crucial match against Everton while wearing this mask. This is good news for the team managed by Roberto De Zerbi, as Tottenham is currently facing serious personnel issues.
Several key players, including Dejan Kulusevski, Mohammed Kudus, Ben Devis, Xavi Simons, and Cristian Romero, are sidelined due to various injuries. In such a situation, the contribution of every experienced footballer is as vital as water in the desert for the team.
At the same time, Tottenham is fighting with all its strength to maintain its position in the top division of the English Championship. In the competition with West Ham United, specialists rate Tottenham's chances higher.
A win or even a draw in the match against Everton would mathematically guarantee the team's place in the elite. It is worth noting that Tottenham has never been relegated from the top division since 1977.
Meanwhile, the current season ended successfully for another North London representative, Arsenal. They achieved the long-awaited result and, for the first time since 2004, won the national championship.
