Tottenham’s hopes for a top-four finish in the Premier League were dashed as they drew 1-1 with Everton, with Michael Keane’s stunning 90th-minute equaliser denying them the win.
Tottenham’s new caretaker manager, Cristian Stellini, saw his team take the lead through Harry Kane’s penalty after Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure was sent off for striking Kane in the face.
However, Lucas Moura was also sent off two minutes from time, and Keane’s thunderbolt equaliser secured a vital point for Everton in their battle against relegation.
Tottenham are now level on points with Newcastle and Manchester United in fourth place, but have played two more games than their rivals for a Champions League spot.
Stellini was disappointed with his team’s lack of aggression after the red card, and acknowledged that they need to play with the same desire and intensity at home and away.
Tottenham failed to capitalise on their man advantage, and Everton’s fight earned them a well-deserved point.
