TOTTENHAM 2-1 BRIGHTON | WEBSTER (37), KANE (53), ALLI (72)

Ryan Sessegnon was given a first Premier League start in Tottenham’s Boxing Day clash with Brighton.

The former Fulham teenager has started just one game – a Champions League clash – but comes in to Jose Mourinho’s side, along with Harry Winks.

The Seagulls made five changes, with Lewis Dunk missing from the squad and Neal Maupay and Davy Propper left on the bench.

Tottenham XI: Gazzaniga, Aurier, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Winks, Sissoko, Moura, Alli, Sessegnon, Kane

Subs: Vorm, Foyth, Tanganga, Dier, Lo Celso, Eriksen, Lamela

Brighton XI: Ryan, Schelotto, Webster, Duffy, Burn, Bernardo, Stephens, Mooy, Gross, Alzate, Connolly

Subs: Button, Montoya, Bissouma, Propper, Trossard, Maupay, Murray

  • Harry Kane’s 24th-minute opener is disallowed for offside
  • Adam Webster powerfully heads home a Pascal Gross free-kick to give Brighton the lead
  • Harry Kane slots in the equaliser after his initial shot had been saved by Mat Ryan
