Tottenham Hotspurs won 2-1 over Crystal Palace, at Selhurst Park Stadium, London, Saturday, October 28. This victory widened their lead at the top of the Premier League standings. Striker James Maddison appeared as a hero by creating one goal and one assist.

The match was less attractive in the first half, but after halftime, James Maddison opened the scoring for Tottenham with a shot that hit opposing players and led to an own goal by Joel Ward.

Maddison then showed his individual skills by dribbled in the penalty box before giving a pass toten Johnson who passed Heung-min Son to score a second goal.

Although Maddison did not score an official or assist, his influence on the pitch was evident. Although Crystal Palace got one goal through Jordan Ayew in injury time, Tottenham managed to get three points in this match.

This victory made Ange Postecoglou the first manager to win 26 points from his first 10 Premier League games. Tottenham now lead the standings with a five-point lead, which is their biggest advantage in Premier League history.

Tottenham will face stiff competition from Arsenal and Manchester City who will play this weekend to cut Spurs' lead. Even so, Spurs have proven that they can win in various ways.

In the first half, Crystal Palace performed well in defense, but also created several opportunities that tested Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario. However, Tottenham managed to break the deadlock in the second half, and is now the leader of the Premier League standings with consistent positive results.
