The opening goal occurred in the 29th minute when Brentford's Vitaly Janelt inadvertently turned a set-piece delivery from Son Heung-min into his own net. Tottenham extended their lead in the 87th minute, with Pape Matar Sarr skillfully flicking the ball through the goalkeeper's legs using the outside of his boot.
Defensively, Tottenham displayed resilience, achieving a clean sheet that will boost their confidence ahead of the upcoming League Cup semi-final second leg against Liverpool. Notable performances included Djed Spence, who was named player of the match, and Ben Davies, both contributing significantly to the team's solid defensive display.
This victory elevates Tottenham from 17th to 14th in the Premier League standings, providing a much-needed morale boost as they aim to improve their position in the league.
