Tottenham Hotspur blew a chance to strengthen their grip on fourth place in the Premier League as they suffered a dramatic, late 1-0 home defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion.

Antonio Conte’s side produced a lacklustre display and looked set for a frustrating stalemate before Leandro Trossard made things even worse with a 90th-minute winner.

After four successive wins, the pre-match mood in north London was one of optimism but Tottenham’s performance was in stark contrast to the bright spring sunshine. They managed only one goal attempt in a dismal first half in which Brighton were by far the better side.

Spurs showed a little more urgency after the break with Son Heung-min twice having shots blocked, but the Seagulls always carried the greater goal threat and deservedly took the points when Trossard cut in from the left and beat Hugo Lloris with a low angled shot with the outside of his foot.

76 mins: Chance! Tottenham’s press ensures they win the ball deep in Brighton’s half and Hojbjerg does brilliantly to spin away from a tackle and izz the ball across the six-yard area. Sergio Reguilon comes sprinting towards the back post and lunges at the ball as it rolls to him but he can’t get a touch and the chance goes begging.

73 mins: Nearly. Gross carries the ball into the Tottenham final third and laces it over to Lamptey bombing it down the right wing. He’s looking for Welbeck in the box and curls a cross into the middle but Lloris comes confidently off his line and grabs hold of the ball before it reaches the Brighton striker.
