Tottenham won despite being 2-0 down 3

Minute 90+2, from a corner on the left wing by Son Heung-min, Bentancur headed close to the wall and hit the Bournemouth player.

Since the start of last season, Tottenham have scored the winning goal in the 90th minute in four away matches in the Premier League, twice as many as any other club in the same period.

The comeback win at Vitality helped the London team maintain third place, narrowing the gap with Arsenal and Man City to two and three points, but playing two and one more matches respectively.

Bentancur (right corner) scored the goal that set the score 3-2 for Tottenham.

Tottenham players ran after, celebrating Bentancur’s goal.

Tottenham is also on perfect momentum for their away trip to Marseille in the final round of Group D of the Champions League on November 1.

Compared to the 1-1 draw with Sporting in the Champions League in midweek, Conte switched from a 3-4-3 formation to a 3-5-2 with striker duo Son and Harry Kane.

This change was not effective, as Tottenham did not enter the game well and let Bournemouth dominate.

It wasn’t until the 36th minute that Tottenham created the first dangerous opportunity.

After that, taking advantage of the opponent’s slackness, Tottenham controlled the game and continuously created opportunities.
