Tottenham, who desperately needed a win to keep the flow going, pushed hard from the beginning. In particular, he made a firm determination to take revenge as he had lost to Palace earlier. The Palace did not retreat easily either. He was aiming for victory to leap back to the upper-middle class again.

In the 24th minute of the first half, Reguilon’s cross followed by Moura’s header missed. In the end, after knocking, he scored the opening goal.

He took the momentum and scored an additional goal. In the 34th minute of the first half, Moura jumped high after a running jump in front of the door from Emerson’s cross and scored with a header. The Palace pursued the pursuit, but bad news occurred. In the 37th minute of the first half, Zaha was sent off due to accumulated warnings as he deliberately knocked down after being pushed back in a competitive fight with Sanchez.
Tottenham continued to take the lead in the second half, aiming for an additional goal by Hosi Tham Tam, putting the key to the game. In the 29th minute of the second half, Moura posted a sharp cross, and Son Heung-min exquisitely changed direction and scored the league’s 8th goal. In the end, Tottenham took a three-goal lead in the remaining time and took the win.
