Tottenham put their chances of a top-four finish in serious jeopardy with a turbulent, galling 3-2 home defeat by Bournemouth.
Dango Ouattara’s added-time winner condemned Spurs to a 10th Premier League defeat of the season, leaving the north Londoners facing a daunting task for Champions League qualification.
Here, Nick Purewal rates the Tottenham performances...
Hugo Lloris 6
Solid enough showing from the experienced France stopper
Cristian Romero 5
A very quiet turn when Spurs really needed a commanding showing
Eric Dier 5
Another who Tottenham would have needed to stand strong as everything crumbled around him
Clement Lenglet 6
Injury cut short what had been a good showing by both Lenglet and Spurs to that point
Pedro Porro 5
Caught cold for Bournemouth’s first goal and never recovered
Always central to Spurs’ strongest showings but prone to going quiet in the toughest times
Oliver Skipp 5
Kept busy amid the madness but could not inspire Spurs with either shape or end product
Ivan Perisic 5
So experienced and so capable, but this game passed him by
Dejan Kulusevski 5
Another senior man to struggle as this game slipped away from the hosts
Son Heung-min 6
A great finish to start the day had Spurs in early control and the home faithful dreaming of a comfortable afternoon, but he faded along with the rest of his team
Harry Kane 6
The trouble with talisman status is there is no time to slip off such a lofty perch. At times he appeared his best self, but too often was too quiet
Substitutes
Davinson Sanchez (for Lenglet, 35) 3
A woeful and match-defining cameo in all the wrong ways for the hapless Sanchez, who came on as a substitute and was then taken off after 23 minutes
Arnaut Danjuma (for Sanchez, 58) 8
Transformed Tottenham with impetus, bite and impact, and took his goal very well
Richarlison (for Skipp, 77) 7
Teed up Danjuma for the goal with a neat cushioned header amid a smart cameo but should have scored the winner.
