Tottenham’s Jekyll and Hyde form continues. <\/p>\n
A promising performance in a 5-3 defeat by Paris St-Germain on Wednesday was followed up by a first-half disaster.<\/p>\n
This was their 10th home defeat of 2025 in the Premier League and they have never lost more than 10 home league games in a year in their history.<\/p>\n
Frank’s side were sloppy at the back and toothless up front.<\/p>\n
For the first goal, Chukwueze’s pass managed to go between two players before finding Tete.<\/p>\n
Moments later Vicario ran out of his box to deal with a long ball, took it to the corner and then hit a weak clearance straight to Wilson for the second goal.<\/p>\n
The goalkeeper was booed by his own fans a minute later when the ball came to him again.<\/p>\n
Spurs had never trailed a Premier League home game by two goals after six minutes before. And it could have got worse. <\/p>\n
Chukwueze hit the post after Spurs failed to deal with a corner – and the winger took the ball around Vicario only to be denied an open-goal opportunity by Micky van de Ven.<\/p>\n
In the first half, they had 16 open-play crosses with none finding a team-mate \u2013 and did not fashion a single realistic scoring opportunity.<\/p>\n
The second half was much better – although it could not have been worse. But only two of their efforts were on target and only Kudus was able to beat Bernd Leno, with a fine strike from Lucas Bergvall’s clipped ball over the top.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
