Ange Postecoglou makes Tottenham Premier League history during stunning 5-0 win over Southampton
Ange Postecoglou was under a lot of pressure at Tottenham heading into Sunday’s clash against Southampton.
The Australian had overseen a run of three Premier League games without a win – and five matc🦩hes in all competitions without victory – before a Southampton side rooted to the bottom of the table awaited.
While pressure would have intensified significantly on Ange Postecoglou had the Sai▨nts won, he instead watched his Spurs side hammer Russell Martin’s men, taking a 5-0 ཧlead going into the interval.
Tottenham eventually𝐆 eased off in the second half, although despite that, Premier League history was made in the opening 45 minutes regardless.
The record Tottenham broke against Southampton
Thanks to two goals from James Maddison, as well as strikes from Heung-min Son, Dejan Kulusevski and Pape Sarr, Tottenham scored five in the first half of the Premier League game for the first time ever.
Now, that is some way to respond after a run of five games🧸 in all competitions without a win.

Of course, Tottenham still have issues when it comꦇes to consistency – not si🌺nce September have they managed to win consecutive games in the Premier League – but this display at St Mary’s was a hugely positive sign.
It will also – hopefully – help to launch the careers of Djed Spence and 𝐆Lucas Bergvall, who has🍎 been compared to Jude Bellingham, at Tottenham, with both st🐻arring in this emphatic victory.
Another small record Spurs broke
In g🉐oing 4-0 up against ෴Southampton after just 25 minutes, Tottenham set another, very specific, record.

It was th🐈e earliest any Sp🐟urs side in Premier League history had gone 4-0 up, another sign that the north Londoners set out to silence their current doubters in highly efficient fashion.
Of course, Southampton are bottom of the Premier League for a reason, but the ruthless display from Tottenham still speaks volumes nonetheless – it may well prove to be a turning point for Postecoglou, who Spurs are strongly backing amid this tough period.
