Not even a card. That ref sucked. Tottenham were extremely lucky to get out of there with a point. Chelsea dominated them.

On a side note, I've been pleased with their new signing Koulibaly. That was a really nice goal he scored too.
i think the ref established very early on that he was going to "let them play" and the physicality escalated over the course of the match. i agree that hairpulling should be a penalty but the ref isnt going to see every push, tug, and pull on every set piece. i could also argue chelsea's second goal by james shouldnt have been allowed because of the penalty against kulusevski the forced the turnover immediately prior to james's goal.
