Hugo Lloris suffered a first-half injury as he was given reason to leave Tottenham ’s humiliation on Tyneside.
The Frenchman started in goal as Spurs headed to Newcastle looking to reignite their bid for a top-four finish. But his main role in a haunting first half was to pick the ball out the back of his net after the hosts scored FIVE times in just 21 minutes.
Lloris was called into action after less than two minutes, but after padding out Joelinton ’s shot, Jacob Murphy was on hand to open the scoring. And it quickly became two when Joelinton scored himself, with a shell shocked Tottenham unable to recover.
