Another week, another draw for the London side Tottenham Hotspur, but the good news; Arsenal played a draw as well.
Coming on to the Lilly-Whites, a hard-fought battle was contested at the Dean Court where both the sides canceled each other out with equal thrust. Tottenham came close to scoring but unluckily hit the frame of the post. Bournemouth had their fair chance as well, but Tottenham’s skipper, Hugo Lloris, ensured that his post remained fresh for the game and for the second time running, he made that game-saving save from Bournemouth’s Charlie Daniels’ close-range attempt.
And soon after that, the fans took to the social media to praise the French international and this is how they reacted:
Another day another Hugo Lloris world class save !!

Furthermore, things went little hot in the 72nd minute of the game when Tottenham’s new signing Moussa Sissoko flew his arm around the Man Of The Match Harry Arter’s face when the players were hustling for the ball at a throw-in. The challenge was made in front of the home supporters and even after the Republic of Ireland international’s protests, the ref decided not to punish the French international.
However, after the game, the Bournemouth lad stated that the incident was an accident but the Cherries supporters clearly denied his say, and this is how they exploded:
Sissoko better get a ban for this. @FA pic.twitter.com/umrRhMrW6A

Hope we appeal Sissoko’s inevitable suspension and ask for it to be extended by another 5 games.

Imagine if costa had done what sissoko’s just done tho man

Red card that sissoko
— Philip Neville (@fizzer18) October 22, 2016
Fair play to Arter for that (“Sissoko told me it’s an accident, I accept that. He isn’t that type of player”). Like the kid even more now.

Aguero got suspended for his elbow on Reid, Sissoko should get suspended for his elbow on Arter

Besides all of it, the former Tottenham Chairman Lord Sugar was following the fixture and was giving his updates as well. He even mentioned that if Spurs cannot win against the likes of West Brom and Bournemouth, then they should forget about winning the title. so, here are some of the best from him:
If Spurs can’t win games at West Brom and at Bournemouth then talk of winning the PL is fantasy
— Lord Sugar (@Lord_Sugar) October 22, 2016
I do like Spurs no nonsense defending in the box just hoof it down the pitch
— Lord Sugar (@Lord_Sugar) October 22, 2016
Should take Lamela off not Son
— Lord Sugar (@Lord_Sugar) October 22, 2016
Shades of the West Brom game . We need to finish the chances in the first half
— Lord Sugar (@Lord_Sugar) October 22, 2016
