Since the delay for a change of official, Tottenham had been well on top with Wilson Odobert, Pape Sarr and Pedro Porro all having chances, with Nick Pope in the home goal doing well to deny Sarr’s 25-yard curler.
Spurs also produced a fine routine with a corner that saw James Maddison roll it short to Son Heung-min, he pulled it back for Porro, but the shot was blocked.
And then, Spurs’ failures to convert the chances proves costly, with Harvey Barnes, with so much space in the middle of the penalty area, sidefooting the hosts ahead. Great noise.
