Tottenham simply could not lose to Crystal Palace tonight with just a point between the North Londoners and the relegation zone. 

In a crazy end to the first half, they have gone from despair to delight to utter devastation.

Ismaïla Sarr thought he had his 12th goal of a fine season when his deflected shot went flying over Guglielmo Vicaro. However, he was ruled to be offside by what had to be an inch or two at best. 

It was a major let off for Igor Tudor's side, who quickly built on it with the opener little over a minute later through Dominic Solanke

However, just moments later it was right back to agony for the home fans as Micky van de Ven got on the wrong side of Sarr inside the penalty box. 

It resulted in a spot-kick and a red card for the stand-in skipper, who will now miss multiple games just as Cristian Romero is set to return. 

Sarr dusted himself down to coolly slot home from 12 yards before Palace ran riot in injury time, Jorgen Strand Larsen scoring before the Senegalese winger got his second. 

As fans streamed out of the stadium, the question now is: are Spurs actually on their way to the Championship?
