3. Both teams lacked quality in the final third
One of the main reasons that both sides failed to score was down to the lack of quality in the final third.
Whether it was a poor pass or a lack of vision, they just couldn’t break each other down, which is surprising given the quality of attacking players in both squads.
Jose Mourinho’s Blues have struggled for goals and points this campaign and it showed throughout the match. On the other hand, Pochettino’s men have been scoring for fun at the Lane, but couldn’t break the deadlock today.
