After winning against Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur maintained their incredible start to the season and extended their lead to five points at the top of the Premier League standings. Following a close first half in which Guglielmo Vicario denied Odsonne Edouard's low effort, the visitors gained the lead in the second half.
The first goal came from a great slice of luck for them when Palace defender Joel Ward diverted a cross from James Maddison into his own net. However, their second goal was not fortunate as Son Heung-min scored his eighth goal of the year after a beautiful play combining Maddison and Brennan Johnson culminated with a shot from six yards out. In stoppage time, Jordan Ayew gave Palace a magnificent goal after putting the ball down on his chest, but Tottenham continued their excellent play under new manager Ange Postecoglou and there was to be no equaliser.
