Tottenham gets bogged down in crisis against Newcastle

This Saturday afternoon, Tottenham lost again at home against Newcastle (1-2), thus confirming their major difficulties at the moment. Spurs have not won in the league since December 15.

Tottenham were hoping for a lot from this reception from Newcastle this Saturday afternoon as part of the 20th day of the Premier League. And in particular victory. Missed. On their lawn, the Spurs once again lost against the Magpies (1-2) in the championship. This result hardly does Ange Postecoglu’s gang any favors, falling to 12th place in the championship. Above all, this new defeat comes as Tottenham is making a series of blunders at the moment. With this setback, the London club has three defeats and a draw in the last four Premier League matches.

Like the recent share of points against Wolverhampton, Spurs once again started the match well with Solanke opening the score quickly thanks to a superb serve from Pedro Porro. But here again, the Tottenham defense showed how easy it was to pierce it and Gordon, well helped by Guimaraes, quickly equalized for the Magpies.

Tottenham in full doubt, Newcastle continues

At the end of the first half, Alexander Isak gave his team the advantage with a magnificent touch of the ball with his right foot, taking advantage of a missed intervention by Dragusin. Upon returning from the locker room, Ange Postecoglu tried things with various changes, notably by bringing in Son but unfortunately it was not enough. The Spurs still showed a better face but they did not put in enough to get at least a point. The problem is that with this defeat, the Tottenham coach is increasingly in the hot seat before two cup meetings and then the north London derby against Arsenal. For Newcastle, on the other hand, everything is going well, with a sixth victory in a row in all competitions.
