Tottenham Hotspur's 1-1 draw against Sunderland has been marred by the home side being booed off their own pitch. The Black Cats' late equaliser, scored by Brian Brobbey in the 90th minute, was enough to hand them a hard-fought point.
The match had seen a spirited performance from Sunderland, who had looked like they were on course for a stunning upset before Brobbey's strike. The young German winger, making his debut for Sunderland, was the hero of the hour as he netted the equaliser in injury time to leave Spurs staring at a draw.
Despite this result, Tottenham will be breathing a sigh of relief that it wasn't an even more embarrassing defeat, given the manner in which they had dominated the first half. But despite their superior possession and chances, the home side couldn't find a way past Sunderland's defence, leading to Brobbey's late intervention.
The draw means that Spurs' winless run continues, and for the Black Cats, it was a welcome point on their return to the Premier League. The performance will give them hope that they can cause problems for some of the bigger clubs in the division.

. I mean, you'd expect the home team to be all pumped up after dominating the first half, right? But instead they get booed off their own pitch? That's just crazy talk 
. And who is this kid Brian Brobbey that he scores a winner in injury time like it's no big deal? The lad's got skills for sure 
. On the other hand, Spurs are still winless and looking pretty shaky. Guess they need to step up their game if they wanna compete with these mid-table teams 
.
, and let's give it to him, making his debut and scoring the equalizer in injury time? that's clutch 
! and you gotta love the underdog spirit of sunderland - they were on course for an upset before that late thriller 
. anyway, spurs might be bummed out about not getting a win, but they can't let one draw get 'em down 
... after all, there's always next match! 
️
. I mean i know they have a lot of money and all but on the pitch its just not translating to wins. Sunderland was definitely the better team out there, especially in that first half when Spurs were absolutely dominating. And Brobbey's equaliser was huge! I'm loving the underdog story so far with Sunderland. They're definitely giving those big clubs a run for their money 
espeshally wen u think bout dem puttin all dat energy into de match & gettin beat by a late equaliser 
espeshally den new boy brobbey he scored da winner in injury time & gave dem life 
now spurs gotta keep calm & try again 
. Sunderland was on fire tho! their young player brian brobbey is literally the hero of the hour 
They looked so dominant in the first half, but then just kinda... stalled out. I mean, Sunderland was giving it a good go, and they definitely deserved that point. Brobbey's goal was a total game-changer. I love how passionate their fans were though - booing them off the pitch? That's some next-level dedication!
