Gray’s Header Clinches Spurs’ Vital Palace Win

Tottenham secured a vital away victory yesterday, edging Crystal Palace 1–0 in a tightly contested Premier League clash at Selhurst Park. The result provided a much‑needed lift for Spurs, while extending Palace’s frustrating run without a win.

Gray the hero for Spurs

Archie Gray was the match‑winner, rising inside the box to power home a close‑range header from a corner. The set piece was smartly worked, with Richarlison supplying the decisive assist into the danger area for Gray to attack. In a game short on clear chances, that single moment of quality proved enough to separate the sides.

Big boost for Tottenham

The three points were especially important for a Tottenham side trying to climb away from the lower half of the table. The clean sheet and disciplined defensive display will also please the coaching staff, as Spurs managed the game well after taking the lead.

Palace’s problems persist

For Crystal Palace, the defeat continued a worrying sequence, with their winless run in the league stretching further. Despite periods of pressure and territory, Palace struggled to turn possession into clear‑cut opportunities against a compact Spurs defence.
