Vicente Guaita 8, Wilfried Zaha 6; Moussa Sissoko 5, Harry Kane 8: Crystal Palace v Tottenham Hotspur player ratings


  • English
  • Arabic

Tottenham Hotspur extended their unbeaten run to 11 Premier League games but were made to work hard for a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace.

Harry Kane's 15th goal of the season put Spurs in front midway through the first half but from then on they retreated and allowed Palace to dominate the game.

Roy Hodgson's men laid siege to the Tottenham goal and eventually forced a way through when Jeffrey Schlupp converted in the 81st minute.

It was the first time Jose Mourinho's side had conceded in close to 500 minutes, but it was no surprise considering the pressure they came under.

They completely went into their shell after Kane and Son Heung-min had combined for the 13th time this season and 32nd overall in the Premier League and only came back to life in the final 10 minutes when Ben Davies hit the crossbar and Vicente Guaita made two good saves.

The draw means Spurs would be usurped at the top of the table by Liverpool if the Reds won at Fulham later on Sunday.
