"Harry Wilson opened the scoring after just seven minutes, though Spurs felt hard done by that Raul Jimenez wasn't whistled for pushing Radu Dragusin in the back while in midair - at least as much contact and advantage gained as the incident between Randal Kolo Muani and Gabriel last weekend, but that's life at the bottom of the table."
"To make matters worse, it was an Arsenal academy product, Alex Iwobi, who doubled Fulham's lead in the with a sensational strike from the edge of the box in the 34th minute. Spurs came to life after Mathys Tel and Richarlison came off the bench just before the hour mark, and the former helped set up the latter to pull a goal back in the 66th."
"Tottenham Hotspur have equalled their longest winless streak in the Premier League (D4 L6), only previously going 10 consecutive games without victory in the competition between January and March 1994 under Ossie Ardiles."
Tottenham suffered a 2-1 defeat to Fulham, matching their longest Premier League winless streak at 10 games. Interim head coach Igor Tudor implemented tactical changes following a 4-1 loss to Arsenal, but the results proved ineffective. Harry Wilson scored after seven minutes, with Fulham claiming a controversial goal amid disputed contact. Alex Iwobi doubled the lead in the 34th minute with a striking finish. Tottenham improved after substitutions, with Richarlison scoring in the 66th minute, but goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario's saves prevented further damage. Fulham climbed to 9th place with 40 points, while Tottenham remained 16th with 29 points, just four above relegation.
