Fulham shock Spurs as Thomas Frank’s charge set unwanted record

Fulham stunned Tottenham 2-1 with two quick goals, handing Spurs an unwanted club record for their earliest two goals conceded in a Premier League home match, despite a late Mohammed Kudus strike.

According to a report from Sports Mole, a “sorry Tottenham Hotspur side set an unwanted club Premier League record” as they fell to a 2-1 London derby defeat against Fulham on Saturday night.

The match, which pitted the “second worst-performing home team against the worst-performing away side in the 2025-26 Premier League,” saw the visiting Cottagers establish an early and decisive lead.

Fulham opened the scoring after just four minutes via Kenny Tete’s deflected strike. Moments later, Harry Wilson capitalised on a blunder by goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario to double the visitors’ lead.

Spurs’ concession of the two goals occurred at the five-minute, 43-second mark, meaning they “conceded two goals in a Premier League home game earlier than ever before,” setting an unwanted club record.

The hosts were met with “boos by the disgruntled Lilywhites faithful” at the half-time whistle. Tottenham showed “renewed vigour in the second half,” and Mohammed Kudus’s “venomous volley on the stroke of the hour mark” managed to claw one goal back for Spurs, making the score 2-1, but the effort proved to be a “false dawn.”

The Man of the Match was awarded to Fulham defender Joachim Andersen, who repelled Tottenham’s attacks, making a monumental 13 clearances and winning six of his seven duels.

The match statistics highlighted Spurs’ dominance in possession with 63% compared to Fulham’s 37%, but Fulham proved more clinical, registering three shots on target to Tottenham’s two.
