Tottenham Hotspur maintains their strong performance under Thomas Frank’s management with a 3-0 win against Everton, halting the home team’s undefeated run.
The match at Everton’s new home stadium saw the hosts controlling most of the possession. Under David Moyes, Everton showed strength and discipline, especially in pressing and ball circulation. However, this was not enough to stop Spurs, who have been terrifyingly efficient in set-piece situations.

In the 19th minute, from Mohammed Kudus’ corner, Bentancur headed the ball back into the box, and Van de Ven charged in powerfully to head in the opening goal. In first-half stoppage time, a similar scene unfolded as Pedro Porro delivered a precise cross, and the Dutch defender rose high to score a sharp header, extending the lead to 2-0.
This marked Tottenham’s fifth goal from set pieces this season, highlighting the clear tactical impact Thomas Frank has brought to the team.

In the second half, Everton pushed forward aggressively with Ndiaye, Grealish, and Beto continuously testing their luck. However, goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario performed excellently, making several crucial saves to keep a clean sheet for the fourth time this season.
As the match progressed, Everton’s defense increasingly exposed gaps at the back. Taking advantage, Tottenham delivered the final blow: Porro dribbled forward then passed to Richarlison, who assisted Pape Sarr for an easy finish sealing the 3-0 win.
This victory not only lifted Spurs to third place in the Premier League standings but also confirmed they are one of the most dangerous teams on set pieces. Under Thomas Frank’s guidance, Tottenham has become pragmatic, resilient, and knows how to win even without dominating the game.

Everton can take pride in their fighting spirit, but clearly, they have learned many lessons from their heaviest defeat this season. For Spurs, they continue to soar, and once again, corners have become the ultimate weapon for the "Spurs" to challenge every Premier League opponent.
