Tottenham Hotspur returned to winning ways with a dominant 4-1 victory over Newcastle United, showcasing their attacking prowess and tactical discipline. The match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium saw Spurs delivering a performance that rekindled their early-season form, with key players stepping up to secure the much-needed win.

Early breakthrough and continued dominance

The scoring was opened in the 26th minute by Destiny Udogie, who calmly finished a well-crafted assist from Heung-Min Son, setting the tone for Spurs' performance. Tottenham's confidence surged, and they doubled their lead in the 38th minute. Once again, it was Son who played a pivotal role, this time setting up Richarlison, who made no mistake in finding the back of the net.

Richarlison shines

Richarlison, having found his rhythm, added another goal to his tally in the 60th minute. Pedro Porro delivered a precise cross into the penalty area, and Richarlison skillfully directed the ball into the bottom right corner, further extending Tottenham's lead. After a rough period, where he struggled with his mental health, it's amazing to see him back shining on the pitch.

Son seals the deal with a penalty

The scoring for Tottenham was rounded off by Son Heung-Min himself, who confidently converted a penalty in the 85th minute, placing the ball beyond the reach of Newcastle's goalkeeper Martin Dubravka. Son's performance was a standout, contributing significantly to Tottenham's attacking threat throughout the match.

Consolation goal for Newcastle

Newcastle United managed to find a consolation goal in the 91st minute through Joelinton, who received a brilliant pass from Callum Wilson and finished with precision. Despite the late goal, Newcastle struggled to match Tottenham's intensity and control for the majority of the match.

Tottenham's much-needed victory

This victory comes as a relief for Tottenham Hotspur, who had faced a series of challenging games prior. The win not only boosts their confidence but also helps in their pursuit of climbing up the Premier League table. The team's cohesive performance, particularly in the attacking third, will be a positive takeaway for manager and fans alike.
