Tottenham Beat 10-Man Crystal Palace 2-0 as Pressure Mounts on Pierre Sage

Crystal Palace's troubles deepened with a 2-0 home defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, leaving manager Pierre Sage under intense scrutiny. Jean-Philippe Mateta's early red card proved costly, as goals from Archie Gray and Jan Paul van Hecke secured a third straight league win for Spurs—their first such streak in 616 days. The result lifts Tottenham into the top half of the table, while Palace suffer a third consecutive loss. With pressure intensifying on Sage, the Eagles' season hangs in the balance. Roberto De Zerbi's side continue to build momentum, but for Palace, the focus shifts to whether Sage can survive the international break.
