Tottenham Hotspur lost their final game of the Premier League season to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday, ending the campaign 17th. A loss, while largely symbolic of their poor league form, won’t be remembered in the wake of European glory.
Dominic Solanke opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 17th minute. Heading into halftime, it looked like potentially a happy day at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium putting a bow on the Europa League celebrations. Then, Spurs’ defensive struggles reared their head and the Seagulls pounced in the second half.
