Interception 1:
Spurs thought they were in for a fast break. However, Thiago Silva's reading of the game is next level. He notices that the Spurs attacker is surrounded by Chelsea players and he simply maintains his ground to cut out the pass.

Interception 2:
A dangerous long ball could've found the clever run of Son but once again the 36-year-old reads the game perfectly and makes a crucial interception. Unfortunately, this caused the injury but he certainly stopped a possible dangerous moment.

Crucial in Build-Up:
Sitting in the centre of the 3 CBs, he notices the entire game transpire in front of him. CHO dropping deep allows Thiago Silva an outlet through the middle and from there intricate one-touch passing and movement opens up Spurs.

Sublime Composure:
Reece getting pressed finds a release pass to Thiago Silva who was not one bit phased by Son's press. Seamlessly negates Son's presence. Utter composure!!
Simply the boss in Chelsea's defense I pray @tsilva3 is back soon from his injury!!
