Tottenham Hotspur drew 1-1 with Leeds United after leading through Mathys Tel and then giving away a late penalty that Dominic Calvert-Lewin converted in 13 minutes of added time. [1, 2]
Tel put Tottenham ahead before he was penalised late on, leaving Spurs unable to turn a home match into a much-needed win. Leeds levelled from the spot through Calvert-Lewin as Tottenham's relegation battle stayed unresolved. [1, 2]
The result denied Tottenham a chance to pull further clear of West Ham United and left the club still searching for a first home league win in 156 days. [1, 2]
Roberto De Zerbi, who has recently overseen away wins at Wolverhampton Wanderers and Aston Villa, saw his side lose control after Tel's late error. [1]
One report on the match called the penalty decision remarkable, with one line saying: "It may have been the highest altitude penalty awarded in the Premier League this season; it was certainly the stupidest." [2]
The match report was published on 2026-05-11, two days after a note that Tottenham were due to go to Chelsea three days after the FA Cup final. [2]
