Porro punches bench after sub in Spurs v Palace, ex-Sporting furious | OneFootball

Crystal Palace deepened Tottenham's crisis in the Premier League even further, winning 3-1 at the Spurs' home on Thursday night, closing out round 29 of the competition. With their fifth consecutive defeat in the league, the team managed by Igor Tudor currently sits in 16th place on the table, with 29 points, just one above the relegation zone.

With former Sporting players Palhinha and Pedro Porro in Tottenham's starting lineup, Dominik Solanke scored for Tottenham in the 34th minute.

. Jorgen Strand Larsen completed the comeback at 45+1', with Ismaila Sarr scoring twice, the second coming at 45+7'.

The match was already in the second half when Pedro Porro, who started the match, was taken off the pitch by Igor Tudor in the 74th minute. The former Sporting player – a club that could reach an impressive milestone in Braga – couldn't hide his irritation with the fourth official and left the field furious. The bench paid the price, as it ended up being punched by the Spaniard.

It should be noted that Tottenham still hasn't won in 2026, and not even their continued presence in the UEFA Champions League is lifting the spirits of players or fans. The arrival of Igor Tudor hasn't had the desired psychological effect, and his games in charge of the Spurs have all ended in defeat.
