On April 16, the 33rd round of the Premier League kicked off, and the 4th-ranked Tottenham Hotspur home game against the Seagulls Brighton, resulting in the 3-point Spurs horse losing the front hoof, scoring 1 goal by the opponent in the 90th minute, and finally losing 0-1, suffering the first defeat of the last 7 rounds, and the Premier League's four-game winning streak was also declared. Before the Gunners could start, Spurs led by just three points in two games, and the situation of competing for four was suddenly tense.
In this campaign, Conte made only one adjustment to the starting lineup, and the Spanish flying wing Reguilon was put on the line. After the opening, Spurs organized several attacks but the thunder and rain were small, and Brighton gradually occupied the initiative on the field, making The Tottenham Hotspur in front of the goal a time. Fortunately, the Brighton players were not able to grasp the opportunities well, and the two sides exchanged blanks in the first half.
In the second half, Tottenham's attack was still not improving, and the performance of number one star Harry Kane was even more depressed. In the 90th minute, Brighton played a wonderful match in the front, belgium international Trossad entered the box from a small angle to break Lowry's ten-finger mark, although Spurs fought back desperately after that, but in the end they could only accept the result of 0-1 defeat.
After winning the match, Brighton also became the second team in Premier League history to beat Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in a row, with Hull City last doing so in October 2008. And it was also the first time in Brighton's Premier League history that it took away a victory at White Hart Lane.
In this game, Spurs had big problems on the offensive end, they only had five shots on goal and all of them were deflected, and Brighton had 5 of the 12 shots on goal. It is worth mentioning that this is the second time in 8 seasons that Tottenham Hotspur has scored 0 shots in 90 minutes at home in 90 minutes, and the last time occurred in the 10th round of the season, they lost 3-0 at home to Manchester United, which was also the last game before the departure of Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Nuno.
After the match, Brighton FC updated its official social media with the words "North London is ours". They do qualify to be so happy. Because before beating Arsenal in the last round, they suffered six consecutive defeats and seven winless games in the Premier League. The points have slipped to 11th place. Although it is not relegated, it is also a very big blow to the morale of the team. Now, however, all the depression has been completely vented, and the North London twins have unfortunately become pumps.
It is also worth mentioning that Brighton is not only qualified to call itself the King of North London. This season, the Seagulls have visited London 5 times, and the record is 2 wins and 3 draws to remain unbeaten. In fact, even the promoted Mabrentford in Greater London have not escaped Brighton's claws, and in the fourth round of the Premier League, they lost 1-0 at home to Brighton. It was Trossard, the protagonist who defeated Tottenham Hotspur tonight, who gave the kill to the Seagull Army. In the last round of the 2-1 win over Arsenal, he also opened the record for the team. It seems that the 27-year-old Belgium international is also the king of London.
