Wolves remain in the bottom three despite coming from behind to salvage a 1-1 draw at Brentford. Newcastle underlined their threat to the traditional powers for a place in the top four with a dismantling of Villa. Joelinton rounded off a fine counter-attack to make it 3-0 before Miguel Almiron continued his sensational form with his sixth goal in as many games. Callum Wilson struck twice to further his case for a call-up to England's World Cup squad with Gareth Southgate in attendance at St. Spurs have at times looked toothless at times going forward in recent weeks, but won the game thanks to two set-pieces after Ryan Sessegnon pulled a goal back just before the hour mark.

BOURNEMOUTH 2-3 TOTTENHAM: KIERAN GILL AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: The comeback winner for Spurs was bagged by Rodrigo Bentancur after their 19th corner of the ...

Bournemouth looked in control but in the 57th minute, Tottenham gave themselves a chance. Conte brought on Dier and Bentancur with Tottenham making it 2-2 in the 73rd minute. There was some ugliness by the sidelines when Moura clashed with a Bournemouth ballboy. A cross by Adam Smith and a header by Moore, who wanted to get to the ball more than Royal. Once the game resumed, five minutes of stoppage time were announced and Tottenham won yet another corner. But Conte wanted to manage Dier and Bentancur’s minutes and dropped them for game No 9 of the month. Tavernier squared the ball to Moore. In the 23rd minute, Bournemouth led 1-0. Conte made those calls with a view to Tuesday’s trip to Marseille – a match they cannot lose, otherwise it’s curtains for them in the Champions League. Tottenham looked more like The White Tripes in the opening exchanges as Bournemouth took control of this match. Ryan Sessegnon kickstarted the comeback with a tidy finish from a tight angle. Finally, Rodrigo Bentancur struck the stoppage-time winner from Tottenham’s 19th corner of the match.

Albion punished by ruthless Spurs (Brighton & Hove Albion)

Albion suffered the worst defeat in their WSL history as a ruthless Tottenham team scored four goals in each half at the Broadfield Stadium.

Celin Bizet Idhusoy’s deep cross found Neville towering above Fox at the far post to powerfully head past Walsh and make it 5-0. But it was 4-0 before the break when Spurs again showed their ruthlessness, the impressive Spence eluding Victoria Williams before firing a right-foot shot across Walsh and into the far corner. Naz struck again in the closing stages to make it 8-0 for a rampant Spurs.

Fiery Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is turning Spurs into 'nasty ... (Daily Mail)

KIERAN GILL AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: Antonio Conte doesn't like it when his team comes across as nice. 'Conte-ball' isn't designed for that.

But as Conte said, Tottenham felt the comeback was inevitable once they got the bit between their teeth. The majority of their corners have been in-swingers, as they were on Saturday to devastating effect. Conte tweaked his team for Bournemouth with Marseille in mind. ‘It was great to see the desire of my players, the reaction they had. It was then that Tottenham started to resemble a competitive team. Nine of Tottenham’s 26 goals this season have come from corners, the most from any Premier League side. That second-half mentality will be needed from the start in Marseille tomorrow. ‘I asked my players to show more personality, to take more responsibility,’ Conte said of his half-time team talk. I could see in their eyes that they decided to win this game. They won their duels. It was polite play. It was safe, stale, stodgy.

San Antonio vs. Minnesota, Final Score: Spurs fend off Wolves, 107-98 (Pounding The Rock)

The Spurs kept the visitors at arm's length all night with excellent performances from McDermott and Johnson.

The Wolves were able to punish the Spurs in the paint and transition to net a bevy of three throws and shave the lead to five. A Johnson game-sealing three off a Poeltl kickout cemented the San Antonio win. - A slippery drive and layup by Naz Reid and an and-1 by Edwards chopped the deficit in half to start the fourth. A putback by Bates-Diop and corner three by Jones briefly halted the run, but the surprising Edwards/Reid pairing made it a one possession game. Johnson jumped the passing lanes to net a breakaway dunk to make it 66-47. A pair of McDermott threes helped make it a ten point difference at the break. After the next Wolves miss, Johnson threw down a big-bodied slam coming down an open runway. - Blake’s Bag: With the offense being run for its vets, Wesley found his way onto the scoresheet by nabbing a weakside offensive rebound and putback. Nine of the ten Spurs players who dressed scored, and San Antonio’s bench rode a decided advantage (43-28) to maintain their lead to the end. The stellar tandem of Keldon Johnson (25 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds) and Doug McDermott (23 points) were bolstered by Jakob Poeltl (14 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 blocks) and Keita Bates-Diop (18 points and 6 rebounds), and a balanced team-wide effort to hold off the talented Wolves. Gobert was turned away by Romeo Langford and Johnson at the rim. His star counterparts, Anthony Edwards (18 points and 6 assists) and DeAngelo Russell (10 points and 5 rebounds), had more muted performances, which allowed San Antonio to keep the Wolves at bay throughout the final three quarters.

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte shown up by Man Utd as Spurs ... (Daily Express)

Tottenham opted against seriously rivalling Man Utd for Christian Eriksen but are being made to regret their decision.

It is not as if Conte was not aware of his qualities, saying back in April: "For sure, to work again with Christian is a fantastic opportunity because I enjoyed the time we spent together in Inter Milan. Instead, though, Eriksen landed at United where he will strut his stuff until at least the summer of 2025, rendering a return to Spurs highly unlikely. He is thriving as Casemiro's partner in a 4-2-3-1 formation and he is showing Spurs, unfortunately for Conte, that he could have been ideal for them as one of three midfielders in a 5-3-2. He could even have played as one of the two forwards behind Harry Kane in a 3-4-2-1. The playmaker produced a superb cross for Marcus Rashford to score the only goal of the game at Old Trafford in a 1-0 win. While the north Londoners came from 2-0 down to beat Bournemouth 3-2 on Saturday, the performance left a lot to be desired.
