Struggling Tottenham Held At Home By Sheffield United

By Daily Sports on November 10, 2019

Tottenham Hotspur’s winless run in the Premier League stretched to five games as George Baldock’s equaliser earned an impressive Sheffield United side a 1-1 draw on Saturday.

It was the least the visitors deserved as they were comfortably the better side before halftime and were victims of a highly-dubious VAR decision after it.

The hosts were fortunate to go ahead in the 58th minute through Son Heung-min’s goal – Tottenham’s first shot on target – and even more so when David McGoldrick’s apparent equaliser soon afterwards was ruled out for offside by VAR.

Tottenham could not capitalise, though, and Chris Wilder’s United side kept plugging away, earning their reward when Baldock’s miscued low cross sneaked in at the back post and the goal was allowed to stand after another anxious wait for VAR.

Tottenham finally began to display some urgency late on and they almost snatched victory in stoppage time when substitute Lucas Moura’s piledriver was tipped over by Dean Henderson.

Sheffield United are now unbeaten in five Premier League games and moved up to fifth with 17 points.

Tottenham, who are yet to win consecutive matches all season, slipped to 12th, three points worse off as their season continues to splutter. (Goal)
