Brentford and Tottenham Hotspur
Saturday
Brentford beat Tottenham 3-0 in their Premier League opener as Keane Lewis-Potter, Vitaly Janelt and Michael Kayode scored at the Gtech Community Stadium. Spurs collapsed despite giving competitive debuts to several expensive summer signings under Roberto De Zerbi.
Brentford dominated the physical duels and repeatedly exposed Tottenham’s defence, while Igor Thiago even missed a penalty. De Zerbi admitted his team failed to fight properly, leaving Spurs with a damaging first test after another major summer rebuild.
