SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 71 mins
Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Here comes Richarlison for Tottenham. Yves Bissouma is off, to a faint ripple of boos at the Amex.
He's then applauded politely by a few fans nearer to the dugout.

Kaoru Mitoma has made an impact. He had a shot blocked a few moments ago and now he weaves in and out of a few challenges and drives all the way to the byline before Hugo Lloris comes across to stop him.

Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Pierre-Emile Højbjerg lays it off to Ryan Sessegnon on the left. He has all the time and space in the world to put the ball into the box but he curls it straight out for a goal kick. Sums up the second half. The quality has dropped massively from both sides. We need a goal!

Tony Pulis
Former Stoke manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveThis is where Tottenham need leaders on the pitch, not just Antonio Conte on the side.
They have to liven up a bit, they have become very sloppy.

Brighton build a bit of pressure down the right, but again, the final ball is poor.
Time for a change...
'The game has gone sloppy'published at 18:52 British Summer Time 8 October 2022
Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Tony Pulis
Former Stoke manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveThe best opportunities and best chances have ended with Tottenham giving it away in their final third and Brighton giving it away in their final third.
They weren’t doing that in the first half. They were playing a lot more positive.
The game has gone really sloppy.

Mark: Spurs are a curious mix of passivity and lethal edge. Conte's counter is holding Spurs back. Unleash some free expression. They will kill most teams if let loose.
Steve: Son is reverting to traits of old - good runs from deep with the ball but not releasing for someone else to finish it off.
Nick: This whole thing of Spurs not playing well but getting a result...not sure it'll last all season.
CLOSE!published at 62 mins
Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
A great chance scuffed by Harry Kane. He spins away from Lewis Dunk but the strike that follows is dragged wide of the far post.

Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Moises Caicedo wins the ball in the middle, he has Danny Welbeck making the run but the pass won't reach him. He'd have been in!
Harry Kane immediately plays in Son Heung-min at the other end but Lewis Dunk slides in to make an excellent challenge.
'Spurs playing backwards and sideways'published at 18:47 British Summer Time 8 October 2022
Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Tony Pulis
Former Stoke manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveAll of a sudden Tottenham have started playing backwards and sideways.
They have really given the initiative to Brighton.

Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Pierre-Emile Højbjerg wins a foul in the middle. The sting has been taken out of the game a bit. Sloppiness has crept in.
Ryan Sessegnon tries to inject a bit of energy but he's offside as he pulls it back to Son Heung-min.
'Conte will be disappointed'published at 18:44 British Summer Time 8 October 2022
Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Tony Pulis
Former Stoke manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveThe last five minutes has been the messiest this game has been.
Both teams have given the ball away under no pressure whatsoever.
Antonio Conte will be disappointed because Tottenham have had good opportunities to get the pass off for the space to open up but they’ve given the ball away too easily.

There's been a few nice touches from Brighton but they are struggling to get the better of Eric Dier and Cristian Romero at the back.

Anon: Bentancur??? Watch him. He is a ball avoider. He can't tackle. Most importantly of all his team mates seem to know this and only pass to him as a last resort. Overrated.

Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Adam Webster is teed up on the edge of the Spurs box but it's well blocked by Cristian Romero. It's a painful one too but he's up and running to defend the corner.
'Kane was in'published at 18:41 British Summer Time 8 October 2022
Brighton 0-1 Tottenham
Tony Pulis
Former Stoke manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveHarry Kane was in.
If Son Heung-min could have got his head up and a ball in then Kane would have had a goal.

Not a bad record.

Antonio Conte is fuming as it's given away loosely by Spurs but Brighton don't make the most of it.
Son Heung-min is then released but he takes too long on the ball and loses it again.
