Brentford 2-2 Tottenham unfolded in a chaotic Sunday afternoon draw.
The post-Harry Kane era began in west London, as Spurs played their first competitive match under new boss Ange Postecoglou. Losing their record goalscorer to Bayern Munich on the eve of the new season was an extremely tough start to another Premier League campaign for Tottenham, but they showed moments of genuine quality, albeit they could not break down a resolute Brentford side in the second half.
