Brentford stun Spurs as Sangare steals the show in season opener
Brentford beat Tottenham 2-0 on the opening day, with Mamadou Sangare shining and orchestrating play as Spurs’ near-£250m summer spree (Savinho, Marmoush among others) fails to yield immediate balance. Tonali struggled to impose, Brentford exposed Spurs’ fragility at set-pieces, and De Zerbi must fix a tactical balance while Spurs await return of Porro and van de Ven and hope their new signings click.
