That’s a handball from Burns?

It hit him from a yard away with his hand down by his side. If we routinely gave those as handball there would be outrage at refs not understanding the game

Dom’s goal was absolutely delicious.

Yeah, but in this case the effect is a goal. Should be a handball, I think.

The handball was decisive in the goal. It should have been called ever before it got to a goal

We used to have that rule and people ducking hated it saying it was unfair

You have referees on the field to call fouls as they happen not wait for VAR

Our referees point blank don’t know how to officiate games.

That lad is some player…no doubt about it. Just seems to be in the right place which is a skill that the very best strikers have.

Spurs just continue to shoot themselves in the foot. Both goals came from giving the ball away in their own third. One when they were hopelessly unready to play out and the other from a throw in.

Dejan Dragusin is atrocious, you get the inkling there’s a howler in him anytime the ball goes near him.

I would not blame him for the goal. Look at Timo Werner in the build up to that goal

Pity Brandon Austin getting his first ever start for Tottenham in goal…

Not only his first Tottenham start - his first appearance of any kind (including youth football) since one U21 game in 2022.

His first senior appearance since making 5 appearances for Orlando City in 2021.

I guess on the bright side he may have forgotten what playing behind a defence looks like…

It is actually sort of refreshing to see a player who has gone down clutching his face really has been smashed in the face. Unintentional, but a nasty shoulder to the nose.

Last thing Gordon needs is a broken nose

Shocking! A player actually grabbing the right body part when being hit? What is this game coming to these day.

Wouldn’t mind Porro in the summer, fantastic little player.

And on the 101st foul Joelinton finally gets a YC
