Manager Roberto De Zerbi praised his players’ resilience and determination and vowed to continue their impressive season. The result marked Tottenham’s second consecutive defeat in the league and leaves them trailing Manchester City by eight points in the title race. Brighton, meanwhile, moved up to eighth in the table, continuing their impressive start under De Zerbi.
