Crystal Palace 0-1 Tottenham: Juan Foyth seizes the winner to repair his first horror show

Juan Foyth has expiated his first horror show in the Premier League with the goal that has accumulated in the misery of Crystal Palace.

The young Argentinean scored Wolves' two goals in Tottenham's 3-2 win at Molineux last weekend, conceding two penalties in his first big game.

The two men were so clumsy that Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino would have been forgiven for having left this weekend after bringing Davinson Sanchez into the Champions League mid-week victory over the PSV. Eindhoven.

However, he kept his fellow countryman's confidence and discovered that the Foyth was really with him this time because his head complicated Palace's bad record in this campaign.

That made six games without a win and, which is alarming, aimless.

And few home fans would expect Wilfried Zaha was not part of the match squad.

Zaha was hamstrung in the 3-1 loss to Chelsea last Sunday and, while Roy Hodgson was hoping to recover in time, that was not the case.

For his part, Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino made six changes to the team that beat PSV Eindhoven 2-1 with Harry Kane doubling in the middle of the week.

This meant a first start to the Premier League campaign for Victor Wanyama, who settled in the defensive midfielder alongside Moussa Sissoko.

The visitors started the match well, but Palace settled in and seemed most likely to score.

Cheikhou Kouyate made an acrobatic start in front of James McArthur but Lucas Moura avoided the danger with a big lead.

Andros Townsend was approached from behind Foyth to catch Mamadou Sakho's ball over the goal, but from a tight angle, he scored his effort in the net near the goal of Wayne Hennessey.

Foyth appeared to be nervous again when he tried to pbad the ball to the goalkeeper, Hugo Lloris, but immediately played for a corner with the goalkeeper, in a totally different postal code.

Thanks to Foyth, some players would have been injured in this way, but a few minutes later he would ask for the ball again.

The Spurs were in the back, but for the good work of the Palace, as one would expect from a team looking for goals, Lloris was never worried.

Sissoko was moving away from two or three challenges on the other end before a good shot ended with a shot that was blocked at close range.

Then Davies did well to get to the demarcation line and a good, full-bodied center deserved a better head from Alli.

The English midfielder had much more time and space than he thought and should have at least forced a backup, but his effort was rather wide.

It is the turn of the Spurs to enjoy the lion's share. Kane's strike forced Hennessey to save the ball, allowing his team to save the ball after Luka Milivojevic lost the ball.

The palace created the first opening after the break, with James Tomkins nodding to the far post from Milivojevic's center.

Tomkins did not last longer before limping and soon after leaving, Palace found himself behind.

Kane met the corner of Erik Lamela, blocked by Milivojevic, and as the ball got up well, Foyth threw himself in to get home.

What a moment it was for the 20-year-old, and after last week's parade, it was no wonder he had celebrated with so much joy.

It was a blow for Palace as well and Roy Hodgson had to fear that his team would have a hard time getting back into the game as they can not buy a goal at home.

They certainly had the opportunities, however, and were disappointed only by a quality Lloris keeper.

Jeffrey Schlupp saved himself from long-term efforts and, when the palace star tumbled onto Lamela, he grabbed the Argentinian and opened a gash on his forehead that resulted in the replacement of the Spursman .

Townsend failed to seize another good opportunity and when another Eagles substitute, Alexander Sorloth, imposed a new stop on Lloris, the home team knew that, again, it would not be their day here , in South London.
