Bournemouth Stuns Tottenham with 1-0 Upset Victory

Bournemouth secured a significant 1-0 victory against Tottenham, ending Thomas Frank's winning start to the season. Evanilson's deflected goal in the fifth minute proved decisive, as Tottenham struggled to break down Bournemouth's resilient defense.

Evanilson scoring against Tottenham

Tottenham failed to register a single shot in the first half, a rare occurrence at home, and could only muster 0.17 expected goals (xG) for the entire match. Despite late pressure, Bournemouth held firm, with Destiny Udogie missing a chance to equalize in stoppage time.

The win lifted Bournemouth to six points, level with Tottenham, and marked their second consecutive victory after an opening-day loss to Liverpool. Tottenham's defeat was their first under Frank and highlighted their struggles in creating clear-cut chances.
