Illustration: AI-generated for editorial context. Not photographic evidence.

Tottenham has now lost both its opening Premier League matches and hasn't scored a goal, despite spending £320m on eight new players this summer. Anthony Elanga put Newcastle ahead mid-second half, with Yoane Wissa doubling the lead later on at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Spurs manager Roberto De Zerbi said his side is "not a team yet."
