Gritty, canny and efficient — against Brentford, Spurs came up with the kind of performance they have desperately needed

Tottenham beat Brentford 2-0 on Sunday to ease the pressure on Ange Postecoglou. MORE – Watch full replay Son's corner was knocked into his own net by Vitaly Janelt in the first half and Pape Matar Sarr's late goal on the counter wrapped things up for Tottenham who withstood some serious pressure from Brentford.

David: That was a torturous game to watch as a Brentford fan. We looked the most likely team to score in the opening 15 to 20 minutes and then it became sluggish. Bryan Mbeumo wasn't at the races, but Mikkel Damsgaard was unplayable at times and Michael Kayode looks like a strong signing.
