“sting” Bradford her Tottenham. The Bees overcame Spurs 3-1 away from home to put themselves firmly in the running for Europe, while the hosts are doing everything in their power to stay out.
THE Tottenham opened the scoring in the 8th minute, when Kulosewski and Kane they set up a combination in a static phase, with the Swede pressing for the 30-year-old forward who sent the ball into the net with a strong shot. In the second half, however, the game turned around for the guests, with him as the main protagonist Embeumo (2 goals/1 assist)who stormed onto the pitch after the break.
At first, equalized with a nice left-footed shot in the 50th minute, after a pass from Wissa, while in the 62nd minute he found the opposing defense in a storm and, taking advantage of his speed, wrote the 1-2. THE Whisa in the 88th minute, he essentially gave Tottenham the final blow with a close-range free kick after a pass from Empeumos, after a steal from Baptiste.
Tottenham, with a mountain to climb, went all out at the end but couldn’t even pull it back and that was largely down to away goalkeeper Raya, who didn’t let Spurs believe they could come back .
In this way, the Tottenham left on 57 points, is in 7th place leading the Conference qualifiers and -1 from 6th Brighton, who welcome bottom Southampton. The only good thing is that Aston Villa, with whom they are level, have to play away to Liverpool. At the same time, Brentford have dropped to one point from Kane and his company.
This is Brentford’s first win over Tottenham since 1948, with the Bees having drawn 5 and lost 9 since then, while they have never beaten them away from home in any competition to date.
