Tottenham vs Brighton: Premier League – live! | Soccer

90+1 min: Bergwijn misses a big chance! A long ball forward was headed towards Bergwijn by Kane, who missed a volley from 15 yards out.

Lallana was challenged by Romero on the right edge of the area, with the ball running towards the charging Trossard. He dodged from Dier and poked an early shot with the outside of his right foot that nestled into the far corner. He tolerated that very well.

Leandro Trossard certainly won it for Brighton!

88 mins Spurs make their latest move with Steven Bergwijn replacing the unusually reticent son.

87 mins Trossard cuts in from the left and cracks a low drive past the near post.

86 mins “Will Morgan (from 1:30 p.m.) is right,” says JR in Illinois. “Given the theory that VAR is on duty, there’s no excuse for Kulusevski not seeing red for that elbow. (Although Cucurella started it off with a pointed forearm in the back for no reason and should have been booked for it.) The implementation of VAR has been and remains a ghastly mess.

“As far as your second screen goes, you should be there at the Interwetten German Darts Grand Prix like me. Wesley Plaisier just smashed Jim ‘The Quiff’ Williams off the board with a 104 average. And of course one of the best things about darts: no VAR.”

85 mins It was such a sluggish attacking performance from Spurs that’s hard to reconcile with their recent form.

83 mins Dunk, 12 yards away, heads Gross’s corner straight to Lloris.

82 mins March’s cross in the direction of Welbeck heads Romero into the six-yard space. Brighton continue to look like the more likely team to score.

81 min There is a break in play while Lamptey receives treatment. It felt like a stop-start game throughout.

79 min Lamptey’s cross heads Welbeck under pressure from Romero.

77 mins Another change for Brighton with Adam Lallana replacing a tired Moises Caicedo.

76 mins Lucas Moura passes Cucurella on the right and shoves a cutback claimed really well by the diving Sanchez.

75 mins Hojbjerg comes to the right of the baseline and smashes a low cross that Reguilon just misses and slides in at the far post.

74 mins Lamptey’s cross shot is blocked by Lloris falling to his right.

74 mins Trossard’s clever ball over the top narrowly avoids Caicedo, who is carefully blocked by Davies.

72 mins Another change at Spurs: Harry Winks replaces Rodrigo Bentancur.

66 mins “A Spurs fan in Mallorca with my dad and my boys,” writes Mark Goodchild. “Dad left to find a bar that ran the game. I was at the pool with my boys. Your account shows I got the best deal.”

I’m not saying it’s boring, but my second screen experience for the past half hour has been QVC.

64 mins Mac Allister whistles a shot over the bar from 20 yards. That was down to Caicedo robbing Hojbjerg in the Spurs half.

59 mins Welbeck controls a Crossfield ball nicely on his chest only to clip his shot out for a throw-in. Brighton win the ball high up in the field but Caicedo’s poor first touch in the box allows Emerson Royal to concede a corner. This was a real chance.

58 min: Fine block from Trossard! Much better from Spurs. Son passes the ball to Hojbjerg on the left, receives a back pass near the penalty spot and deflects a low shot which is blocked by the stretching Trossard. The loose ball runs to Bentancur, who shoots just wide from a distance. And Bissouma is booked for fouling Kane earlier in the build-up.

56 mins Spurs try a free kick on the training ground and make a mess of it.

55 mins Bissouma is punished for a high challenge to Emerson Royal. Free-kick for Spurs, 25 meters from the right goal…

54 mins The Spurs failed to create momentum in this game.

51 min: Good block from Veltman! A quick long throw from Kane finds Son in the area. He lobs the ball cleanly over Veltman, who responds well to block the shot that follows.

49 mins It was a rocky start to the second half. The Spurs fans are really not happy. Has Antonio Conte taken this team as far as he can?

47 mins “Welbeck for Mwepu,” says Roy Allen. “That’s a win for cheating.”

Well, Mwepu wasn’t completely blameless.

Surprise surprise Brighton make a half-time change. Danny Welbeck replaces Enock Mwepu, so Alexis Mac Allister will fall into midfield.

“I know you are not the FA Cup But all I can say is I’m really excited about the City/Liverpool semi-finals,” said Ian Copestake. “At my age, however, I am happy about every sign of semis.”

God knows what state they’ll be in before they clash in the Champions League final.

“I don’t understand why Kulusevski isn’t sent off after a VAR review,” says Will Morgan. “The ball is long gone and his only intention seemed to be to land one on Cucurella. Pure red.”

I missed an incident just before halftime where Cucurella kicked Kulusevski’s Achilles tendon off the ball so he could have left too. It could to have been an accident.

Peep peep! Mwepu ends the half with a fierce long-range shot straight at Lloris. It was an uneventful 45 minutes – Brighton were the better side without creating many chances and the main topic of conversation is whether Dejan Kulusevski (probably) and Enock Mwepu (maybe) should have been sent off.

45 mins Spurs try again to send Mwepu off as Hojbjerg goes down dramatically on the edge of the Spurs area. Graham Potter will certainly have to take it off at halftime.

42 mins Spurs want a second yellow card for Mwepu after a high challenge against Davies. Craig Pawson disagrees, and life goes on. I think that’s fair enough – Mwepu didn’t see Davies coming and only had eyes for the ball. It could have gone either way.

38 mins A naught forward ball is headed across the box by Reguilon towards Kane, who controls it on the chest and is about to fire it towards goal when Cucurella comes up on his blind side for an important, likely goal-saving interception do.

36 mins The home crowd is frustrated. Brighton have been excellent although their dominance hasn’t translated into many clear chances.

34 mins Bentancur is booked for a lunge in Bissouma. He took the ball but then flattened Bissouma in his stroke.

33 mins “Whether Kulusevski scores or not, the intention counts and he didn’t even look properly, so he should have seen red,” says Tomasz Rykala.

Yes, I typed that and then realized it was probably nonsense. I remember Cristiano Ronaldo being sent off at Manchester City in 2006 for a two-footed tackle in the open air, so I guess the same principle applies here. I guess he was lucky he stayed.

30 minutes “Spurs have been playing like a team that read too many good reviews about their own performances and started believing in them…” says Jonathan Gresty.

I’d give Brighton quite a bit of credit – when they play well they’re a really clumsy team. Don’t forget they won at Arsenal this season and moved to Chelsea and Liverpool.

29 mins Gross’ corner from the left is headed over the goal by Mac Allister and desperately cleared by Bentancur.

28 mins Lamptey’s cross narrowly dodged Mac Allister and was sent behind by Royal. Brighton have been the better side so far.
