Gomes: Lets the ball slip through his legs while linesman judged it crossed the line

Salomon Kalou snatched a late winner as Chelsea fought back from a goal down to beat Tottenham 2-1 and pick up a vital three points.

The London derby looked on course to end in stalemale until the substitute popped up in the 89th minute to bundle the ball home as Chelsea surged forward in numbers.

Carlo Ancelotti’s men can consider themselves fortunate after an error from the officials gifted the home side an equaliser.

The first half ended in controversy after a 35-yard shot from Frank Lampard squirmed through the legs of keeper Heurelho Gomes.

Despite the whole of the ball failing to cross the line the goal was allowed to stand by the linesman, sparking angry protests from the Tottenham players.

Spurs took the lead in the first half with a bolt from the blue as Sandro rifled home a shot from range to put the visitors ahead.

In the second period Tottenham soaked up Chelsea pressure but felt aggrieved to not receive a penalty after Younes Kaboul felled Florent Malouda in the box, however all was forgotten as Kalou later made sure of three points.
