Relegation Battle

Tottenham remain in the Premier League relegation zone after they were stunned by a stoppage-time leveller from Brighton substitute Georginio Rutter during a pulsating 2-2 draw in Roberto De Zerbi's home debut.

Roberto De Zerbi could only watch in stunned silence. The Italian had been a crucible of emotions as Tottenham tried to hold out against his former club after Xavi Simons scored the goal that looked like ending their long wait for a victory. But football is capable of providing the cruellest twists and Georginio Rutter’s late dramatic equaliser must have felt like a dagger to the heart for De Zerbi and the Tottenham fans. The draw leaves Spurs marooned in the relegation zone having failed to win in the league in 2026 and it is 15 games since they last achieved that feat. Fail to beat the bottom side Wolves next week and they will have matched the worst winless run in their history. De Zerbi was right to point to the positives afterwards even if the preposterous prospect of this magnificent stadium hosting Championship football next season is growing by the day. Victory for West Ham against Crystal Palace on Monday night would leave them four points from safety and almost needing a miracle.

Tottenham were so close to a vital three points against Brighton this afternoon before a late equaliser by Georginio Rutter. It wasn’t great defending by Spurs as they held onto a 2-1 lead late on, with Kevin Danso losing the ball in his own penalty area, allowing the ball to be squared to Rutter, who […] The post Video: Tottenham defensive howler gifts Brighton stoppage time equaliser & keeps Spurs in bottom 3 appeared first on CaughtOffside.

Xavi Simons did precisely what Roberto De Zerbi asked of him but Spurs could not quite hold on against Brighton, with one mistake critical.

The ink is not dry yet, but the mood around Elland Road on this springtime Saturday afternoon perhaps told you that what many have started to truly believe over the last few days could soon become official. There have been some wobbles throughout Leeds’ return to the Premier League, not least prior to this season-defining week, when a run of six games without a win had threatened to suck Daniel Farke’s side back towards a bottom three they have been outside since the start of December. Heck, there were even a couple of hair-raising moments during this game.

With the Foxes only having nine points to play for, the club appear destined for back-to-back relegations after dropping out of the top flight last season.

⚽️ Follow goal updates and much more on our clockwatch ⚽ Live scores | Latest tables | Top scorers | And mail John From our weekend digest, Louise Taylor’s take on that huge game for Leeds. Leeds are morphing from relegation contenders to reverse kingmakers with a key role to play in determining the identity of the teams that end up descending to the Championship. Thanks to Monday night’s fully merited 2-1 win at Manchester United – their first league victory at Old Trafford since 1981 – Daniel Farke’s 15th-placed side moved six points clear of the relegation zone with six games remaining. A win against rock-bottom Wolves at Elland Road on Saturday would lift Leeds to the virtual sanctuary of 39 points but it is just the first of four impending matches against the bottom four. With Burnley still to visit West Yorkshire and Leeds facing trips to Tottenham and then, on the final day, West Ham, Farke’s FA Cup semi-finalists will likely have a significant say in who finishes where when the top-tier music stops next month.
