There was more emphasis on occupying the attacking half and having territorial dominance near the opposition goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But they are still hugely dependant on long balls and parallel through passes. Whenever they spend too much time passing the ball around, it feels like they start playing &#8216;hot potato&#8217;. The tendency is always to go wide and finish the play off as soon as possible, a strong habit from which it&#8217;s hard to let go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Xavi Simons didn&#8217;t have his best game, but still managed to put himself in dangerous positions in central areas. But the ball never got there because all the players were looking to play down the wings.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-663x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1426335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-663x1024.png 663w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-194x300.png 194w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-768x1186.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-995x1536.png 995w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-1326x2048.png 1326w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-173x267.png 173w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-130x200.png 130w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-39x60.png 39w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-97x150.png 97w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126-26x40.png 26w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173335\/TottenhamPassNtwkBurnley240126.png 1360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Tottenham&#8217;s passing network vs Burnley<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>And despite clearly dominating the first half, Tottenham still had a defensive breakdown that led to Burnley&#8217;s opening goal. Cristian Romero dropped deep a couple of steps to defend Kyle Walker&#8217;s incoming cross but nobody behind him followed suit. Axel Tuanzebe stepped forward and found himself completely free in the six-yard box to score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-burnley-manipulated-tottenham-s-backline\">How Burnley manipulated Tottenham&#8217;s backline<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of how the Clarets scored, their second goal was a masterpiece of movement and manipulation. And credit to Scott Parker who recognised the amount of space there was to work with and introduced Lyle Foster into the fray. Though he could have done that after the first of three fast breaks that Armando Broja would waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Foster took Romero out of the play with a clever &#8216;dummy&#8217; and forced Micky van de Ven to go one-on-one with Jaidon Anthony and Kevin Danso to tuck inside and cover. This created a 3v1 in favour of the hosts inside the guest&#8217;s box, with the Austrian centre-back left alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The South-African striker even had two chances to put it away and there were two other teammates completely unmarked with him. It&#8217;s worth mentioning, though, that Romero&#8217;s lack of urgence to get back in the play and Djed Spence&#8217;s lack of awareness to close the gap and &#8216;redo&#8217; the defensive line were huge components in the goal actually happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that wasn&#8217;t Burnley&#8217;s only chance in the game. In fact, they had four clear-cut goalscoring opportunities &#8211; more than Spurs&#8217; three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table aligncenter is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Stats<\/th><th>Burnley<\/th><th>Tottenham<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Possession<\/td><td>37%<\/td><td>63%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shots (on target)<\/td><td>9 (4)<\/td><td>18 (11)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Big chances<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>3<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As we mentioned before, Broja had three great fast breaks. Tottenham can&#8217;t seem to charge forward without maintaining the least of a defensive structure and plan to protect themselves from counter-attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-right-side-leads-the-way\">Right side leads the way<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Thomas Frank&#8217;s men usually show very few attacking ideas and often depend on individual brilliance to create. Wilson Odobert and Djed Spence certainly provided that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They were probably their two best players in the game and caused a lot of chaos down the right-hand side in the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was Odobert&#8217;s solo run and cross that served Romero for the late equaliser. Meanwhile, Spence pitched in with four successful take-ons, three crosses completed and two chances created. He was the main force driving them forward whenever they didn&#8217;t go long.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-1024x791.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1426334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-1024x791.png 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-300x232.png 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-768x593.png 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-346x267.png 346w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-259x200.png 259w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-78x60.png 78w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-150x116.png 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126-40x31.png 40w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2026\/01\/24173314\/TottenhamFlankAttackBurnley240126.png 1360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Tottenham&#8217;s flank attack map vs Burnley<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Simons also had lapses of creativity, despite not having his best performance. He placed a beautiful cross that Dominc Solanke failed to convert with a header worth over 0.60 xG. Martin Dubravka prevented many dangerous shots from going in and is certainly the main reason why Burnley were ever alive in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And despite that, it feels like Tottenham didn&#8217;t really deserve to win.
