With the same starting lineup as against Manchester United last week (2-0), Tottenham chained another success in the Championship on the lawn of Bournmeouth, Saturday in the English rain. James Maddison led the way for Spurs in the first half (17th), then his partner Dejan Kulusevski doubled the lead in the second half (63rd).
At the Vitality Stadium, in one of the smallest stadiums in the Premier League (some 11,000 seats), Tottenham stayed the course in this good start to the season under the orders of their new coach, Ange Postecoglou. The Londoners started the match perfectly thanks to one of their star recruits of the summer, James Maddison, ideally found in the back of the defense by Pape Matar Sarr. The English midfielder took over in first intention at the penalty spot to slip the ball into the side netting (17th).
Richarlison lacked realism
Once in front, the Spurs tried several times to drive the point home. Richarlison, again established by his coach, lacked realism on several occasions before halftime (36th, 40th). The Brazilian, visibly annoyed by his performance and the “bad luck” that has struck him in England for many months, narrowly avoided the red (54th). Warned, he was replaced by Ivan Perisic on the hour mark. Dejan Kulusevski, after a discount from Destiny Udogie, secured the victory (63rd).
Tottenham is still undefeated in the Premier League (2 wins, one draw) and takes the lead in the Championship. Bournemouth are yet to win a game after three rounds and will look to take points against Brentford on September 2.
