From the source

OK, there are a fair amount of caveats to this match — early red card, bunkered opponent, whatever — but Spurs rolled to a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.

Sure, the early sending off of Jean-Philippe Mateta helped a LOT, but Tottenham got goals from Archie Gray and Jan Paul van Hecke en route to an utter dominant performance.

Spurs also got cameos from Dejan Kulusevski, and 18-year-old Luca Williams-Barnett as they jumped up to 8th in the table. It’s the first three-match winning streak since February 2025 under Ange Postecoglou.
