Tottenham has lost three consecutive North London derbies.
Tottenham lost 1-2 in the 21st round of the "2024-25 English Premier League (EPL)" against Arsenal at Emreitz Stadium in London, England, at 5 a.m. on the 16th (Korea time).
Arsenal started with David Raya, Luis Skelly, Gabriel Magalyangis, William Saliba, Julian Timber, Declan Rice, Martin 외degaard, Thomas Partey, Leandro Trossar, Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling.
Antonin Kinski, Jed Spence, Radu Dragusin, Archie Gray, Pedro Porro, Pape Sarr, Lucas Beribal, Yves Bissouma, Dejan Klusevski, Son Heung-min and Dominici Solanke participated first.
Arsenal led the game from the very beginning by banking on strong pressure and quick turn of attack. While overwhelming the match until the 15th minute in the first half, Tottenham unilaterally played defense. However, they failed to score a goal.
In the end, Tottenham took the first goal first. When the ball flowed from a corner kick in the 25th minute of the first half, Son Heung-min attempted a one-touch shot, and the ball deflected off Paty's foot and headed into the goal. This is the moment when Son Heung-min scored his sixth goal in the league. 스포츠토토
Arsenal scored the equalizer in the 40th minute of the first half. While Porro was defending, he missed the goal line after being hit by Trossar's foot, but the referee declared a corner kick. Rice's kick went sharply into the goal and hit Solanki's body to score, making the score 1-1.
Arsenal turned the game around four minutes later. Bissouma's ball was beaten by pressure from the front and Odegaard passed it immediately to Trossar on the left side. Trossar fired a left-footed shot and the ball passed through Kinski, leading to an upset goal.
Tottenham produced aggressive changes by dispatching Brennan Johnson and James Medison at the beginning of the second half, excluding Sarr and Bissouma. However, Arsenal remained steadfast in their defense. Rather, Arsenal continued to lose points due to Arsenal's detailed attack. Arsenal put Gabriel Martinelli in place of Sterling in the 15th minute of the second half.
Tottenham changed its tactics at the 32nd minute of the second half by dispatching Hishalisson without Son Heung-min. Tottenham tried to launch offensive until the end of the match, but the accuracy of its attack was very low, and the match ended in the same manner.
Tottenham lost three consecutive games against Arsenal. They bowed their heads after losing both games this season following the previous one. Then, they came in 13th with the worst record of only one win in their nine recent league matches. Arsenal had 43 points, narrowing the gap with the top-ranked Liverpool (40 points).
