Tottenham

Newcastle moved into the Premier League top four with a 2-1 win at Tottenham on Sunday that dealt another blow to Spurs' title aspirations.

"He's come out and just jumped into me. I don't have to get out of his way and thankfully we've gone 1-0 up." Spurs were given hope as Clement Lenglet headed Son Heung-min's corner into the direction of Kane to nod in his 11th goal of the season on 54 minutes. If it were not for the heroics of Hugo Lloris, Spurs would have been on the end of a humiliating scoreline at Old Trafford in midweek. Newcastle laid down a marker in the battle for a place in next season's Champions League as Eddie Howe's men edged ahead of Chelsea and Manchester United. Harry Kane pulled a goal back for the home side after the break, but it was not enough to prevent a first defeat in 11 games at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

First-half goals by Callum Wilson and Miguel Almiron — both aided by mistakes from Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris — put Newcastle in control after Tottenham had ...

Antonio Conte’s side needed a quick response after the break and Kane obliged in the 54th minute, out-muscling Trippier to get on the end of a cross and score at the far post with a stooping header — the goal allowed after a lengthy VAR check for a possible offside as the ball came in. He seemed favourite to deal with a long ball when he came out of his goal but failed to clear it and collided with Wilson, who then chipped the ball into an unguarded net with Tottenham’s players furious. They stay third with 23 points from 12 games.

Harry Kane reduced the deficit but first-half strikes from Callum Wilson and Miguel Almirón were enough to give Newcastle a 2-1 win at Tottenham.

“We have to finish this period of games and then in January we’ll see where we are.” “I had every right to go for the ball,” Wilson said, with just cause. A lengthy VAR delay and a skirmish in which Rodrigo Bentancur went close to losing his head did not rule out the goal. These are early days but Yves Bissouma’s best performance at the Tottenham stadium in 2022 remains as a Brighton player in his former team’s 1-0 April win.Newcastle may have the best goals‑against record in the division but they had not come to defend. Draws with the Manchester clubs, being unlucky losers at Liverpool and this result suggest a team here to stay. With winnable fixtures against Aston Villa and Southampton before a pre-World Cup showdown with Chelsea, Newcastle can be solidly in the Champions League shakeup when they head off for that Saudi winter training camp taken for “football reasons”.

Antonio Conte said "time and patience" are required after his side fell to a second consecutive Premier League defeat, this time at home to Newcastle.

If someone thinks we can invent the win and do a miracle, we need to continue to work. When three to five players are out it becomes a problem for a team like Tottenham." We have to finish this period of games and then in January we'll see where we are, which improvement we need. With my experience, we are doing well but we need the time and patience.” "When you play every three days you need to have a deep, strong squad. We have to face a difficult situation for us.

Newcastle broke into the Premier Leagues top four following first-half goals from Callum Wilson and Miguel Almiron to secure a 2-1 win at Tottenham.

Spurs forced a set-piece of their own and Son's delivery was flicked on by Lenglet to the back post where Kane stooped low to head in his 11th goal of the campaign. Wilson carried on while Lloris was on the floor and lobbed both the France international and Dier before he wheeled away to celebrate. This statement win consigned Spurs to back-to-back defeats and occurred amid some controversy, with the hosts unhappy no foul was awarded against Wilson, who collided with Hugo Lloris in the build-up to his lobbed opener.
