A match in the fourth round of the EFL Cup begins, with Tottenham challenging Newcastle United as a guest. Tottenham's record in the league is quite good, with 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, scoring 17 points, ranking third, squeezing Manchester City and Manchester United behind them. However, multi-line operations are still a huge challenge for Tottenham. Their recent record has been unstable, with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss in 3 consecutive games. Now coming to the EFL Cup, Tottenham faces the powerful Newcastle United. As a result, Tottenham lost and were eliminated.

Tottenham deployed a 4231 formation. Risa Tatsumatsu is at the front. The offense featured Berivar, Harvey Simmons and Brennan Johnson. Sarr and Bentancur partnered as a double defensive midfielder. The back four of Spence, Kevin Danso, Palinha and Polo started. Kinski serves as the starting goalkeeper. Tottenham's starting lineup is worth a total of 380 million euros. The total value of Newcastle United's starting lineup is 347 million euros.

Not long after the game started, Newcastle United created an opportunity. Fortunately, Kinski concentrated and saved the ball. Seven minutes later, Barnes was released on the left side of the penalty area, but his shot missed and wasted an excellent opportunity. In the 24th minute, Tottenham lost the ball. Tonali took a corner kick, Scheer jumped high and headed the ball, and the ball bounced into the goal.

In the 35th minute, Rissarisson missed a good opportunity. His shovel shot from close range was a step too late and failed to touch the ball. Six minutes later, Barnes shot sideways from close range and the ball hit the crossbar and popped out. Subsequently, Jiafu fouled and was shown a yellow card. At halftime, Tottenham trailed 0-1. Tottenham had 52% of the ball in the first half, 6 shots on goal, and no goals. Newcastle United also shot 6 times in the first half and scored 1 goal.

Change sides and fight again in the second half. In the 50th minute, Tottenham lost the ball again. Willock passed the ball from the left, Walter Mader rushed to header and the ball went in. The goalkeeper's error allowed Walter Mader to easily put the ball into an empty net. In the 60th minute, Sarr's push shot in the penalty area was saved. Subsequently, Rissarisson's shot was also resolved by the goalkeeper. In the 78th minute, Tottenham brought on Ter and replaced Rissarisson. However, nothing works either. Spurs were never able to score. In the end, Tottenham lost to Newcastle United 0-2. There was nothing Frank could do, and it was useless to replace 3 people.
