The two-goal rafal in the first five minutes of the second half from Leicester City condemned Tottenham Hotspur to 2-1 homemade defeat on Sunday afternoon.
The Spurs led in the first half via Richarlison, but were punished for a heavy start of the rapid double firing of Jamie Vardy and Bilal El Khannouss.
The Leicester victory allowed them to get out of the relegation zone, while Tottenham remained at a depth of 15 places, closer to the intermittent line than upper half of the table.
How did the match take place
Tottenham Premier League The matches with Leicester had an average of more goals than any other regular matches in the history of the competition.
It was not immediately evident that the latest iteration of this duel would follow this example. A pair of porous rear rear gave each side enough space for the gallop forward, but the incapacity that was running through both desperately outside the form of clothing also infected the front lines. Son of Heung-my He hit the Leicester Divide base in the first 20 minutes, but the foxes were not without their own unsuccessful attack attacks.
Richarlison interrupted the dead spot shortly after half an hour. Pedro Porro got the freedom of northern London to perform a gorgeous center, letting the ball rolled up before moving away and swinging a blow to the Brazilian peroxide scalp on the last tripod.
The Tottenham Hotspur stadium was half empty when Vardy hit Leicester’s level 58 seconds after the extension. Many from Spurs’s lineup may have been fine at the longest bar in Europe. Rado Dragusin and Ben Davies were able to enter the field, but both of them were hopelessly swinging after the low bodies of Bobby de Cordova-Reida, which Vardy switched over the line.
Barely three minutes passed before El Khannouss increased Tottenham’s trouble. Dancing through the gaping abyss that seemed to be eternally on the verge of a spurs lodge, LeicesterThe offensive midfielder nonsense turned low effort into the lower corner over the base of the stability.
The Spurs, the third shooters of the Division, were unusually open as they were chasing the game. Postecoglou could not be accused of passivity, reorganization of the middle and front lines shortly after it was lagging, but the attack that led the son through the middle barely forced Jakuba Stolanczyk on a significant defense.
Tottenham’s 13th championship defeat of the season, more than they suffered throughout Postecoglou’s debut campaign, was greeted with a choir of angry whistles by fans who suffered to the last whistle.

Tottenham is almost joking at this point. After giving Everton and Arsenal The dedicated respite, the Spurs have afforded Leicester their first first -team victory this year after a series of seven consecutive defeats.
While the same jokes about ‘Dr. Tottenham to repeat, this was the new Nadir for Postecoglou’s increasingly unhappy suit. The rear line was unconvincing as always, the contrast to the reckless excessive zeal of Pedro Porra and the frozen fear of the two central defenders with lead legs was almost poignant to watch. Still, a weak representation of the second half from the first line was a new, completely unwanted evolution.
The switching of Son through the middle did not leave him on his lap, but somehow he brought him closer to his goal to be isolated. After taking 42 touches during the first 55 minutes he spent outside the goal, Tottenham’s Talisman captain was limited to only 11 (insignificant) interactions with the ball for more than half an hour. Neither of them was an effort to the goal.
The creativity so often provided by the injured James Maddison was obviously absent because the Spurs managed to throw only two blows to the goal in the second half – none of them worried the Stolanczyk, who managed to celebrate without receiving several times for the first time in his first league career.
The cheerful roar on the away side in the celebration of El Khannouss’ winner was stifled by aggressive whistles from the rest of the field. The boiling multitude burst into spontaneous chanting “We want Levy out!” repeatedly during the second half.
Postecoglou’s tactical decisions were also strongly called into question, Leicester’s goalkeeper Stlarczyk who wasted time became a pantomic villain, and even the Spurs players were not spared an angry explosion because of the increasingly toxic atmosphere. Porr’s insistence on recording from the narrowest corner soon weakened.
Tottenham’s manager has expressed his own frustration With a club hierarchy this week, claiming that a lack of new arrivals in January would be “playing fire”. Levy, as he made clear clearly during his two decades at the head of Spurs, will not quit himself. This luxury may not be extended long on postecoglou.
“You take some sticks during the game,” Vardy grinned for the last time he met Tottenham. “As long as I can take when I bring them back, then everything is fine.” The Spurs ultimately had bigger problems to care for the Premier League Martyr, which he did not enjoy.
After raising Leicester’s level eventually, Vardy added Tottenham’s unsuccessful cleaning with his mistake before making a late contact, an evergreen veteran repeated his misery from Introductory match of the seasonpointing to the Premier League badge on his sleeve to remind everyone in northern London for his personal achievements and their own failures.
Vardy’s distinctive spines can distract from his exceptional longevity. The proud first -team champion is only the fifth player at the age of 37 or more, who directly contributed to ten or more goals in one Premier League season.
The last time Richarlison started the Premier League match for Tottenham, he was in the team for a team that was within the first five division. Leading in a team that started 15th place on Sunday, the Brazilian marked his long -awaited return goal – his first at the top of May.
Richarlison’s return to form happened just when Dominica Solanko lost Postecoglou due to a knee injury for about six weeks. Tottenham’s coach wanted to reduce expectations about his number nine before the game, warning: “He has not played for a long time, so he will not be sharpened, but the reality is that he has to play if something does not change.”
Former Everton The front was sharp enough to find space in Leicester’s breathable rear line, wandering between the nap -dual two Jannik Vestergaard and Wout Faes to nod from close range.
The decision to take off Richarlison within ten minutes after the re -start was welcomed by the roar of an audience of the audience that did not become happier.
