Tottenham Hotspur faced off against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium earlier tonight as they looked to earn a win on the road in the Premier League. Spurs made a quick start to the game as they scored the opening goal in the fifth minute thanks to Mathys Tel\u2019s effort. However, Evanilson equalised for the Cherries in the 22nd minute before Eli Junior Kroupi made it 2-1 to Bournemouth in the 36th minute. Thomas Frank\u2019s men were trailing 2-1 at the half-time interval.<\/p>\n

Joao Palhinha equalised for Tottenham in the 78th minute. However, Antoine Semenyo scored a dramatic winner in injury time as the North London club crashed to a tough 3-2 loss at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a look at how each Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> player fared during the clash against the Cherries.<\/p>\n

GK: Guglielmo Vicario \u2013 5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vicario failed to make a save in the game and conceded three times tonight.<\/p>\n

RB: Pedro Porro \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He managed to shine at times on both ends of the field, but was a bit careless with his passing.<\/p>\n

CB: Cristian Romero \u2013 9\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Romero won a lot of aerial duels and was a rock at the back for Spurs tonight.<\/p>\n

CB: Micky van de Ven \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He struggled to impress on the defensive third of the pitch.<\/p>\n

LB: Djed Spence \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Spence caught the eye at times on the left flank but was far from convincing when defending inside his half.<\/p>\n

CM: Joao Palhinha \u2013 7.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He got stuck in with a few solid tackles and managed to equalise for Spurs in the 78th minute.<\/p>\n

CM: Rodrigo Bentancur \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bentancur made a few solid tackles in the middle of the park and was tidy with his passing.<\/p>\n

RW: Lucas Bergvall \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He had a few strikes at goal but was quiet for most of his time on the field.<\/p>\n

CAM: Xavi Simons \u2013 6.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Simons caused some problems for the Bournemouth defenders and has got an assist to show for his efforts.<\/p>\n

LW: Mathys Tel \u2013 8.5\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He managed to score early in the game and was a real threat on the left wing.<\/p>\n

ST: Randal Kolo Muani \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kolo Muani struggled to get into the rhythm of the game and put in a disjointed display in the opponent\u2019s half.<\/p>\n

Substitutes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

RW: Wilson Odobert \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

He made one key chance in the final third.<\/p>\n

ST: Richarlison \u2013 6\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n

His impact on the game was minimal.<\/p>\n
