Chelsea defender Thiago Silva goal helps make Prem history

Chelsea defender Thiago Silva made Premier League history in Sunday's win against Tottenham.

Goals from Hakim Ziyech (47) and Thiago Silva (55) settled the win for the hosts.

With his goal, Thiago Silva, at 37 years 123 days, became the oldest goal scorer in the Premier League since Ryan Giggs scored for Manchester United in February 2013 at the age of 39.

Thiago Silva signed a new deal to 2023 last month.
