From the source
Tottenham Hotspur‘s ongoing transformation under Roberto De Zerbi reached a landmark pinnacle on Halloween afternoon. Beyond securing a third consecutive Premier League victory and keeping back-to-back clean sheets, official confirmation from Tottenham Hotspur’s official website revealed that Spurs shattered their all-time club records for both total passes completed and overall passing accuracy in a single Premier League match.
Controlling roughly 80 percent of ball possession at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the North London side completed 759 accurate passes, establishing a new gold standard for distribution in the club’s top-flight history.
The 759 completed passes against Crystal Palace surpassed Tottenham’s previous Premier League high of 747, set during a 3-0 victory over Cardiff City at Cardiff City Stadium in January 2019 under Mauricio Pochettino.
