Five things we learned from Spurs’ dismal display against Bournemouth

Tottenham Hotspur needed a win today against Bournemouth to secure a top-four place for another season, ahead of Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United.

However, after Heung-mon Son and Juan Foyth both saw red, a nine-man Tottenham struggled to hold on to a point, and eventually succumbed to an injury-time Nathan Ake header from a corner.

Spurs have now two huge games left to play starting with Wednesday night in the Champions League semi final second leg against Ajax, followed by the final Premier League game of the season at home to Everton.

Here are five things we learned from the match:

Tottenham have Everton at home on the final day of the season, and Pochettino would have been hoping it would be a relaxed match. However, if Spurs' rivals do not drop points this weekend, Spurs may need to win that final match in order to secure their top four spot. No Kane, no Son, no Winks, and who knows who else by the time the game comes around. Tottenham will face a huge effort to beat an in-form Everton side, especially if they are knocked out of the Champions League on Wednesday.
