Tottenham Hotspur took the lead in the last home game of the season.

Tottenham finished the first half with Harry Kane’s opening goal leading 1-0 in the 2022/23 Premier League round 37 match against Brentford held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 20th (Korean time). 

Tottenham came out with a 4-4-2 model. Fraser Foster goalkeeper, Emerson Royale, Davinson Sanchez, Clement Lenglet and Ben Davies built the defense. 

Oliver Skip and Eve Bisuma were in charge of the midfield, Son Heung-min and Arnaut Danjuma were on the flanks, and Dejan Kulusevski and Harry Kane were on the front line. 

Brentford faced off with a 4-3-3 formation. In addition to goalkeeper David Raya, Aaron Hickey, Ethan Pinnock, Ben B, and Rico Henry guarded the defense. 

Matthias Jensen, Frank Oneika and Vitali Janelt defended the midfield, Kevin Sade and Joane Wissa. Brian Mvemo stepped up to the fore. 

Tottenham shook the net first. In the 8th minute, when Kulusevski stepped on a free kick that Kane took from close range of the opponent’s box, he scored the opening goal with an exciting right-footed in-step shot. 

As Brentford counterattacked, they started attacking little by little, and Tottenham tried to counterattack by aiming for space behind the opponent. 스포츠토토

Tottenham slowed down the opponent’s progress while having a good forward pressure system, and after winning the ball, they focused on creating opportunities with a quick attack switch. 

In the 42nd minute, the attack started when Kane succeeded in releasing the pressure and gave it to Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min advanced to the right side of the box and raised a cross, and Danzuma’s header came out, but the return missed. 

In the 45th minute of extra time in the first half, Son Heung-min tried to shoot inside the box in a counterattack situation after an opponent’s corner kick, but was blocked by the defensive block and swallowed regret. 

The first half ended with neither team scoring any more goals.
