But three minutes later, Kristoffer Ajer gave Brentford a response, their only point in seven games.

Ten Hag said, “Even though it wasn’t fair, you have to accept the three points because we were winning in the end.” “It is quite disheartening to lose the match.”

Spurs have now come from behind to win four of their previous five home games.

Spurs were impacted by Ange Postecoglou’s halftime substitute once again when, only six minutes after the Welsh international’s debut, Issa Kabore diverted Brennan Johnson’s cross into his own net.

Son eventually had some luck in the game as his deflected attempt slipped past Thomas Kaminski for his 15th goal of the year. Son had missed many opportunities earlier in the contest.

Son remarked, “I was getting frustrated until the very end, but I wаnted to maintain my composure as captain.”

Chelsea’s manager, Mauricio Pochettino, faced further criticism at Stamford Bridge after his team drew 2-2 with bottom-of-the-table Burnley in the second half despite failing to capitalize on having an additional man.

After Lorenz Assignon was brutally sent off for bringing down Mykhailo Mudryk inside the area, it seemed as if the Blues would easily win.

Vincent Kompany, the manager of Burnley, was also sent off for overstepping the mark in his complaints.

The ensuing penalty was coolly chipped in by Cole Palmer, but Josh Cullen’s incredible strike from outside the box two minutes into the second half brought the 10 me𝚗 level.

In Chelsea’s FA Cup quarterfinal victory over Leicester two weeks before, Raheem Sterling was jeered off the field, but he believed he had set up the winning goal with a flick that Palmer smashed into the far corner.

However, Chelsea was unable to hold out for long as, nine minutes from the end, Dara O’Shea headed in a corner.

“We didn’t demonstrate the necessary ability, vigor, or hunger to compete in the Premier League today,” Pochettino stated.

“During the defensive phase, we gave up too many goals.” I am so angry and dissatisfied because of this.

Newcastle staged an incredible comeback to win 4-3 at St. James’ Park, bringing them to within one point of West Ham in seventh place.

Michail Antonio, Mohammed Kudus, and Jarrod Bowen all scored goals to negate Newcastle’s early penalty kιck lead.

But 13 minutes from time, a second Isak spot kιck ignited the comeback, and Harvey Barnes, a replacement, scored twice to send Eddie Howe reeling down the touchline in ecstasy.

We were swinging all over the place in that game, which was full of emotions, according to Howe.

Being a part of the final ten minutes was incredible.
