The Best Tweets and Memes as Chelsea Beat Tottenham in League Cup Final

Sean FayMar 1, 2015

Poor old Tottenham—it has been a tough week for them. 

After being knocked out of the Europa League on Thursday night, they arrived at Wembley on Sunday hoping to win their first trophy since 2008. However, it was Chelsea who enjoyed a 2-0 victory in the Capital One Cup final.

Was the Internet sympathetic toward Tottenham on such an upsetting day? Of course not.

Even by Spurs standards, going out of Europe, blowing chances of a top 4 spot and losing a cup final all in one week is impressive.

Even Tottenham fans who were a little naughty saw their mischief backfire:

£2 coin thrown at Costa? It's a joke the amount of money in football now a days, back in the day 10p would do. 👷 pic.twitter.com/WGBBvEEKRJ

Meanwhile, Chelsea were victorious, and the suspended Nemanja Matic did what Chelsea players do on such occasions:

"

Matic has done a 'John Terry' and changed into full kit from his suit earlier! #LeagueCupFinal #CapitalOneCupFinal pic.twitter.com/sN3TJVxGti

You'd think Terry might have said to Matic 'It's really not worth it..." #fullkit

Matic is doing a John Terry!!

And with Manchester City losing to Liverpool in the Premier League earlier in the day, it was a pretty good day for Jose Mourinho and Chelsea.

"

Congratulations to Chelsea. Mourinho is so darn good that he's won the Premier League and the league Cup on the same day.

Chelsea fans sing "Jose Mourinho", but he points instead at the players on the pitch, because he's not very interested in personal glory.

All in all, it was a good day to be a Chelsea fan.
