Spurs rally from two goals down as Brighton's bold plan earns a share of the spoils
Tottenham fought back from two goals down to draw 2-2 at Brighton, salvaging a point when Jan Paul van Hecke turned a Mohammed Kudus cross into his own net eight minutes from time. That late twist arrived after Richarlison had halved the deficit just before half-time, with Brighton having surged to a 2-0 lead by the 31st minute through Yankuba Minteh and Yasin Ayari.
The visitors controlled large portions of the contest, particularly after half-time, but wasteful finishing kept the Seagulls in front until the closing stages. Brighton, who were dangerous on the break despite seeing less of the ball, held on under late pressure to prevent Tottenham from completing the turnaround.
