Tottenham fell to a 3-1 home defeat against Crystal Palace on Thursday, their fifth consecutive Premier League loss, leaving them just one point above the drop zone with 10 games left. Dominic Solanke gave Spurs a 34th-minute lead, but Micky van de Ven's red card for pulling back Ismaila Sarr triggered a collapse. Sarr scored twice from the spot and open play, with Jorgen Strand Larsen adding a third. It is Spurs' longest top-flight winless run since 1935.
