Chelsea managed to hit yet another low as goals from Oliver Skipp and Harry Kane condemned them to three straight defeats in all competitions
Hakim Ziyech’s overturned red card caused plenty of controversy in a heated game.
But it was Skipp’s opener in the 46th minute which initially set tongues wagging.
That’s because British transfer record signing Fernandez committed an unholy howler to gift the midfielder his first-ever Spurs goal.
Straight from second-half kick-off, Emerson Royal tested Kepa Arrizabalaga with a shot.
But the Spaniard was unable to throw himself on the ball due to Fernandez being in the way.
The Argentina World Cup winner then feebly kicked the ball straight back into a line of Spurs players.
And Skipp pulled the trigger to lash home for his first goal in five years as a senior star.

Fans certainly couldn’t believe their eyes, with many questioning what was going through Fernandez’s head at the time.
One said: “What is Enzo doing?”
Another declared: “What an assist by Enzo Fernandez! That’s his second since joining Chelsea, the man is on fire.”
One noted: “Defensively Enzo Fernandez is a massive downgrade on Jorginho and I know the truth hurts. His workrate is so lacklustre.”
Another added: “The worst decision Enzo Fernandez could’ve possibly made is joining Chelsea. Now he’s stuck there on a 8.5 year contract.”
