Mistakes kept coming, and the fans were disappointed to lose 3-1 to Brighton. In this game, Tottenham's defense made a mistake in coordination, giving the opponent a one-on-one chance, and although goalkeeper Vicario performed eye-catchingly, he could not stop Brighton's attack.

This is one of the big reasons that lead to the loss. Tottenham need to improve the teamwork between defenders in training to reduce the occurrence of such mistakes. At the same time, the opponent Brighton are quite sharp in attack, which will require Tottenham to make some improvements in defence
to deal with the opponent's attack. In addition, Tottenham also lacked control in midfield during the game, failing to effectively organise attacks and limit opponents' goals. The performance of the midfielders not only affects the team's offensive and defensive transitions
It also had an impact on the overall trend of the game. Therefore, the organization and control of the midfield are also areas that need to be focused on and strengthened. In addition, Tottenham also had shortcomings in attacking up front, failing to create enough scoring chances effectively
This is also a big reason why they lost in the competition. Teams need to look for more attacking opportunities up front, improve the accuracy of their shots and the number of shots on goal to increase their chances of finding the back of the net. In general,
The problems that Tottenham exposed in this game cannot be ignored and need to be tweaked and improved in all aspects of the backline, midfield and front. Hopefully, the team can find a solution to the problem in the future games and achieve better results.
