Published 29 August 2026

Tottenham Hotspur slumped to the bottom of the Premier League table after a 2-0 home defeat to Newcastle United on Saturday, August 29, 2026, extending a dismal start to the season that has left fans frustrated and raised questions about the club's direction. Goals from Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa in a ten-minute second-half spell secured the win for Newcastle at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, marking a second consecutive loss without scoring for Roberto De Zerbi's side. The result leaves Tottenham with zero points from their opening two matches, having also lost 3-0 to Brentford last week.
