It was only on Monday night when Ange Postecoglou declared that Tottenham had played their “worst 45 minutes of the season”, but by Friday there was perhaps an immediate contender to surpass it sakla
Frustrated by Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park and without a shot on target, Tottenham went into the break with a problem to solve sakla
But, by the end, as Spurs picked and probed and then found a way through, the struggles of the first half were a distant memory sakla
After all, Tottenham are now five points clear at the top of the Premier League sakla
A fourth consecutive victory came courtesy of a Joel Ward own goal and an eighth of the season from Son Heung-min and, eventually, it felt thoroughly deserved sakla
Against a deep and disciplined Palace defence, Tottenham required patience but Postecoglou’s team stuck to their plan sakla
Even with talk of Spurs emerging as title contenders, they kept the calm heads required to find the breakthrough sakla
When the hosts finally offered something of their own after Jordan Ayew’s excellent volley in the the 94th minute, Tottenham were able to see out a nervy end as well sakla
How the Spurs fans in the corner of Selhurst Park would have soaked in the scenes that followed, as Postecoglou and his players applauded the travelling supporters after extending the club’s best start to a league campaign since 1960-61 sakla
It has been a dream first two months of the season and Tottenham have taken advantage of what has been in front of them: namely a favourable fixture list and the absence of European fixtures sakla
Here, that was added to by a meek performance from the Eagles and a calamity from Ward sakla
But, one way or another, it has all combined to leave Tottenham five points clear sakla
“Tonight was always going to be difficult but I liked how the players handled it,” Postecoglou said sakla
“They were patient, persistent in finding the gaps sakla
It was a different challenge for us tonight and I Iiked how we went about it sakla
”Postecoglou has taken 26 points from his first 10 Premier League games in charge (Getty Images)It took until the 53rd minute, but Tottenham eventually found a way through Palace, even as the visitors took the lead before managing to have a shot on target sakla
It came thanks to a disastrous moment from the Palace captain, as Ward was caught at the back post and awkwardly diverted James Maddison’s cross into his own net sakla
The source of the breakthrough, though, did not come as a surprise sakla
Rather, as Postecoglou said later, it came through discipline and trust in the Australian’s approach sakla
All game, Tottenham had looked to play around the sides of Roy Hodgson’s stubborn and compact defensive shape, attempting to create overloads to break Palace down sakla
Maddison drifted wide to combine with Richarlison on the left, but it was the bursts of Pape Matar Sarr and the guile of Dejan Kulusevski that appeared more threatening on the right sakla
Eventually, as Pedro Porro slipped Sarr through and it broke to Maddison, Ward provided the finishing touch to the fizzed delivery across the face of goal sakla
Tottenham’s second came via the same route, even if the finisher was more familiar sakla
Son added another first-time finish to his collection this season as Spurs again took to the sides to cut Palace apart sakla
After Sarr’s switch, Maddison’s quick two touches released the overlapping Brennan Johnson – who had replaced Richarlison moments before sakla
Johnson took a moment before pulling the cross back to Son and the Spurs captain, now with eight Premier League goals this season, was typically clinical with his left foot sakla

Palace offered very little after going behind, Hodgson’s side refusing to open up or press Tottenham to the growing anger of the home supporters sakla
Even though Tottenham’s Guglielmo Vicario further enhanced his reputation as perhaps the standout goalkeeper in the Premier League this season with two early stops, first denying Jordan Ayew and then Odsonne Edouard, Palace’s best chance without either Eberechi Eze or Michael Olise seemed to be holding out for 0-0 sakla
There was nothing surprising about Palace’s approach from kick-off but it did enough to briefly halt Tottenham’s momentum under the Friday night lights of Selhurst Park sakla
Hodgson’s side, and a defence that shipped four goals away to Newcastle last weekend, were set up to be awkward and difficult against the leaders, a sign perhaps of the force Tottenham have already become under Postecoglou sakla
At first, Tottenham struggled to open up the gaps and it said a lot about the growing importance of left-back Destiny Udogie sakla
Ruled out due to injury, the impressive 20-year-old left a void that Ben Davies never looked comfortable trying to fill sakla
Udgoie has been a revelation in this fresh Spurs side by impressing in the half left-back, half number 10 role that Postecoglou demands sakla
Even without the Italian, Postecoglou did not compromise his approach as Davies stepped in, but the 30-year-old looked lost as he looked to drift ahead of Maddison when Spurs were in possession sakla
Davies’s first start of the Premier League season lasted all of 47 minutes, replaced by Emerson Royal at half-time sakla
Postecoglou needed an answer and the introduction of Johnson on the wing brought an improvement on Richarlison, who continues to look short of confidence when in attacking positions sakla
If Richarlison and Maddison never quite looked in sync, that changed with the arrival of the Welshman sakla
While Tottenham’s opening goal was fortuitous, the second was sharp and brought a rare moment of class to the contest sakla
It was considerably more than the little Palace were able to muster, until Ayew lashed in an excellent volley in the 94th minute: by the time the goal was eventually awarded after a VAR check for handball, it gave Tottenham five more minutes to see out sakla
Palace did have one last chance after a cross to the back post fell to Matheus Franca in the box sakla
But the substitute sliced the chance wide and high, Spurs breathed a sigh of relief and in the corner, the party finally could begin sakla

Steve Borthwick signed off an encouraging World Cup after England edged Argentina 26-23 at the Stade de France to claim third place sakla
The Pumas paid the price for allowing England to build a 13-0 lead and while they fought back to control the second-half, Borthwick’s men held their nerve to send scrum-half Ben Youngs into Test retirement with a bronze medal sakla
Their only defeat at France 2023 was the agonising 16-15 loss to South Africa in the semi-final sakla
“I’m delighted for the players to get the win after they have worked so hard,” Borthwick said sakla
“We won six games out of seven and lost one game by one point to the current world champions and current world number one, which shows the progress of the team sakla
It shows how the team has built during the tournament sakla
“Playing finals games at World Cups is important sakla
In the last two World Cups this group of players have played six finals games and won four of them sakla
“Clearly we want to be in the final and winning the gold medal sakla
That wasn’t to be, but having finals experience has been important for this squad sakla
“The players should be very proud of their efforts and the challenges they have overcome sakla
While things haven’t been perfect, they find a way to win games sakla
“Now we didn’t last weekend – we lost by a point, which will hurt for a long time sakla
But when the players have found themselves in tough circumstances they have found a way to win sakla
”With all neutrals at the Stade de France supporting Argentina and with Red Rose fans making the trip across The Channel in small numbers only, England played in the most hostile atmosphere they have encountered at this World Cup sakla
Captain Owen Farrell was booed throughout and most noisily when he was lining up penalties and conversions sakla
“I wasn’t surprised sakla
It’s usually like that here sakla
When you play against France in Six Nations here, they don’t cheer you when you’re having a shot at goal!” Farrell said sakla
“It’s a bit different here in France to how it is over in England when a kicker’s taking a shot sakla
But that’s what it is – just different sakla
That’s no problem sakla
”Argentina head coach Michael Cheika felt that his Pumas did not get the rub of the green with referee Nic Berry, especially at the scrum sakla
“The game could have ended differently especially when you look at the final 15 minutes,” Cheika said sakla
“We did everything we could and we deserved more, both in terms of result and refereeing sakla
“Three or four scrums we were dominating and despite that we got no reward for it sakla
For me that was very surprising sakla
“To be here on October 27 is very positive for the fans and for us sakla
What is missing for us is excellence sakla
It’s hard to accept losing this game and draw any positives from it sakla
“I believe that our trajectory over this World Cup will make Argentinians proud sakla
We will come back stronger sakla
