Tottenham got battered, once again!
Seven goals in an epic London match, where Spurs were even spotted with two early goals on errors by Marc Cucurella wearing his new boots causing him to slip twice on the pitch. A quick change of the boots, and there was an immediate impact as he helped assist Jadon Sancho with the 1st goal of the match to make the score 1-2.
Adjustments were made at the half as Malo Gusto came on for Romeo Lavia which let Enzo Fernandez to roam free for much of the 2nd half as Spurs continued to press very high leaving them with a 3 on 4 disadvantage in the midfield. A penalty was given as a foul occurred in the box as Yves Bissouma wipes out Moises Caicedo. Cole Palmer steps up and wrong foots Fraser Forster to level it at 2-2. Enzo then puts his mark on the match with a thumping goal off a deflection as he we left alone, once again, free to roam in the box making it 3-2. Palmer then seals it with cheeky panenka kick from the spot after another penalty from Tottenham giving them a 4-2 lead. Spurs bagged a goal by Heung-Min Son late in the dying minutes of the match making it a 4-3 final.
Up next, it’s another London derby with West London rivals, Brentford FC who have been a challenging foe against the Blues having gone winless in 5 PL matches against Brentford. Will this finally be the end to this slump? We’ll find out on Sunday.
Come down to the Londoner Addison this Sunday afternoon and kick it with the Shed End Dallas crew. We look forward to seeing you there!
Cheers,
