Spurs aiming to bounce back from heavy defeat on opening weekend

Tottenham slumped to a second successive defeat of the new Premier League season as they were beaten 2-0 by Newcastle United. Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa scored the goals at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium that condemned Roberto De Zerbi to a first home loss since he took over the reins in north London.

Spurs dominated much of the proceedings in the capital, as Sandro Tonali was reunited with his old employers after his £100million switch earlier on this summer. The midfielder was ran ragged in the engine room by Lewis Miley, Joe Willock and Nico Gonzalez, who was making his debut for the Magpies after his £50m move from Manchester City.

Another former Man City man was also making his bow, with Omar Marmoush, signed on an initial loan with a £50m obligation to buy, starting from the off for Spurs. While he produced some promising moments, he was starved of any real goalscoring opportunities. Savio, the other arrival from the Etihad Stadium, missed the game through a muscular injury, De Zerbi confirmed ahead of kick off.
