Review of the match Tottenham - Fulham:
Tottenham Hotspur secured an emphatic 2-0 victory over Fulham in a Premier League match played at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The match started well for Tottenham as Son Heung-Min put the team ahead in the 36th minute. Before that, Tottenham's Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg was yellow-carded in the 35th minute, indicating the competitive nature of the match. However, it was Son's goal that gave Tottenham the lead before the break. At the start of the second half, Fulham made two quick substitutions in an attempt to change the dynamic of the game. On 46 minutes, Carlos Vinicius and A. Pereira came on in place of R. Jimenez and A. Iwobi respectively. Fulham's attempts to turn the tide of the game were nullified when James Maddison of Tottenham made the score 2-0 in the 54th minute. Tottenham also made two substitutions shortly after Maddison's goal, with D. Udogi replacing Emerson Royal in the 56th minute and P.M. Sarr coming on in place of O. Skipp in the 62nd minute.
Fulham responded with a substitution, replacing B. De Cordova-Reid for H. Wilson. The match continued with more substitutions from both teams. In the 72nd minute Fulham made two more substitutions, replacing S. Lukic with H. Reid, and in the 81st minute Tottenham made a third substitution: Richarlison replaced B. Johnson. In the 82nd minute, Tottenham made a double substitution: Son Heung-min replaced G. Lo Celso and J. Maddison gave way to A. Veliz. In the 82nd minute, Fulham also made a late substitution: J. Palhinha replaced T. Cairney. Time passed, the tension of the game remained high, and in the 85th minute Tottenham player G. Vicario received a yellow card. Despite their best efforts, Fulham were unable to break through the Tottenham defence, resulting in a 2-0 victory for the home side. The win took Tottenham Hotspur one step closer to achieving their Premier League goals, while Fulham will be disappointed with the result.
