Tottenham Hotspur Struggles Continue with Goalless Draw Against Everton

Tottenham Hotspur's 2026/27 Premier League season has taken a concerning turn as the club has yet to score a goal after four matches. The latest setback came in a 0-0 draw against Everton on September 12, leaving Spurs with just one point from four games, which includes three losses and one draw.

Despite dominating possession with 62% and taking 14 shots, Tottenham could not find the net, with only two attempts testing Everton's goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. Everton, on the other hand, managed 13 shots but only three were on target. The match drew an attendance of 60,477 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

New manager Roberto De Zerbi, who was brought in after a near-relegation season, has faced immediate scrutiny as the team struggles to convert chances into goals. De Zerbi criticized his players' decision-making in the final third, particularly highlighting a missed opportunity by club-record signing Sandro Tonali, who opted not to shoot when presented with a clear chance.

With four matches played and no goals scored, Tottenham has not faced such a drought in the Premier League for 20 years. De Zerbi acknowledged the need for improvement in composure and decision-making near the goal, while also noting the team's defensive improvements with two clean sheets.
