Premier League pundit Andy Townsend:
“Richarlison almost steering it in with a clever flick. But brilliant play from [David Raya]. To react and turn around and see it and get a big right hand on it. Amazing stuff.”

Oh how has David Raya kept this out?! Djed Spence on the right does really well to get towards the byline and smash in a low cross. Richarlison goes for the backheel, six yards out, and it beats Raya but at a slow enough speed that Raya can dive and claw it off the line!

Premier League pundit Andy Townsend:
On what Igor Tudor has seen from his Tottenham Hotspur team in his first game in charge: “We saw a bit of spirit when (Spurs) went one goal down, when they got their equaliser. But truth be told, they’ve been a little bit all over the place in that first period at the back. And since the second half and going two goals down, this is the same look about this Spurs team as what Thomas Frank had in his last couple of matches. Spririt not great at the moment.”

Premier League pundit Andy Townsend:
“They’re just sharper and anticipating better. They know where the balls going to bounce and more people on their toes in the second half.”
