TIFO: Substitutes Rodrigo Bentancur and Bryan Gil celebrated in extra time.

(Bournemouth-Tottenham 2-3) Two goals from Kieffer Moore (30) could have inflicted the team’s third consecutive defeat at Tottenham, but Antonio Conte’s pressed side turned the game into two extra minutes.

– It was absolutely essential for us to win this match. Because we had zero points in the previous two. This victory can give us more confidence, Conte tells Sky Sport.

In 2015, Kieffer Moore (30) spent six months unsuccessfully at Viking. After the Welshman left Stavanger, his career took him to the Premier League.

On Saturday, Moore scored both 1–0 and 2–0 against Tottenham at Vitality Stadium. With the score, the visiting team was heading towards another crisis, but the London white jerseys showed will and winning character in the last half hour of play.

First, Ryan Sessegnon cuts the score with a corner shot from the opposite corner with just over 30 minutes left. Left-back Ben Davies then equalized the score 2-2 after 73 minutes, before substitute Rodrigo Bentancur made it 3-2 for Tottenham in corner extra time.

Match statistics suggest that the victory was deserved. Tottenham had, among other things, 70 percent of the ball, 19 corners against Bournemouth’s two and 12 goals, while the home team had five attempts.

With the win, Tottenham are in 3rd place in the Premier League – three points behind leaders Manchester City, who won 1–0 away against Leicester without an injury Erling Braut Haaland.

Excellent contrast for “Spurs”, who with a defeat would have gone into the locker room with a pitch black streak of three consecutive defeats. Now the negative trend has been reversed.

FROM DESPERATION TO JOY: Tottenham manager Antonio yelled at the players during the match.

For Bournemouth the situation is worse. After Scott Parker was fired as manager after one win and three defeats in the first four rounds of the league, Gary O’Neill took up the interim position on 30 August.

The team then went undefeated in the next six games, but the last three all ended in defeat. 13 points in 13 rounds occupy the provisional 14th place in the standings for the former team of Fenerbahçe striker Joshua King.
