Antonin Kinsky thwarted any chance Chelsea did have, denying Joao Pedro and Estevao with two fine saves.<\/p>\n<p>The winner came from a rare counter-attack by the new-look Spurs side, who defended well throughout with Andy Robertson making his first start and Jan Paul van Hecke on debut, as they battled to secure another win in pre-season.<\/p>\n<p>          <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sdc-article-image__item\" loading=\"lazy\" intrinsicsize=\"768x432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/skysports-richarlison-spurs_7311781.jpg\"   alt=\"Richarlison is congratulated by his Spurs team-mates\" data-testid=\"article-image-image\"\/><\/p>\n<p>        Image:<br \/>\n        Richarlison is congratulated by his Spurs team-mates<\/p>\n<p>The key moments from Sydney17: TONALI SCORES!
