With 20 minutes left, the midfield player was knocked out after colliding heads with Abdul Fatawu of Leicester while attacking a corner, necessitating oxygen. Archie Grey, who made his debut following his summer transfer from Leeds, would take his spot. The teenager entered the game in the 78th minute, but Postecoglou made three more substitutions as Tottenham looked for a winner. He brought on Timo Werner, Dejan Kulusevski, and Lucas Bergvall, then made his two stoppage time adjustments, bringing the total to six.
However, Tottenham was unable to get the victory that their dominance—especially in the first half—may have warranted. They led at halftime thanks to a header from James Maddison from Porro, but Dominic Solanke, the new acquisition, must have been disappointed not to take more of his opportunities.

Following the Foxes’ successful return to the top division, Jamie Vardy’s header in the second half left the Tottenham manager lamenting his team’s wastefulness. “It was a disappointing outcome,” he stated. Extremely wasteful in front of goal but a highly dominant first half. We dominated the first fifteen to twenty minutes of the game, albeit wastefully, and at 1-0 there’s always a chance for the opposition to tie the score. That’s what occurred, and we spent the next fifteen or twenty minutes lost.
We lost our cool, and the audience began to support them, but we once more came in strong. We just didn’t have the cutting edge in the front third, made some bad choices, lost our composure, and didn’t receive the credit our football deserved.
