- Twelve minutes changed the match after Dominic Solanke’s opener, with Micky van de Ven sent off for denying Ismaila Sarr before Crystal Palace scored three times in seven minutes.
- Ismaila Sarr struck twice, including the penalty from the red-card incident, and Jorgen Strand Larsen added the other as Palace won 3-1 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
- Tottenham is 16th on 29 points, one above the relegation zone, after a fifth straight league defeat and no Premier League wins in 2026.

- Manager Igor Tudor faces mounting pressure but said he still believes in the squad, with league games against Liverpool, Nottingham Forest and Sunderland ahead and a Champions League tie with Atlético Madrid next week.
