Chelsea responded to the humiliating start to their title defence by extending Tottenham's Wembley woe with a 2-1 win in the first Premier League clash at the national stadium.

Marcos Alonso scored twice for the visitors as Antonio Conte's men, crowned champions in May, recovered from their opening home loss to Burnley.

Alonso's first-half free-kick was cancelled out by Michy Batshuayi's own goal eight minutes from time.

But Chelsea were not finished and Alonso struck again to finish off Spurs, whose record since Wembley reopened in 2007 reads: played 11, won two, drawn one and lost eight.
