Coventry 1-2 Tottenham: Win papers over performance

Two late goals rescued Tottenham against Coventry and also papered over an underwhelming performance.

"We had to just hang in there somehow and we did," manager Ange Postecoglou told Sky Sports after his side's win. "We weren't fluent or cohesive."

As Postecoglou says, Spurs were not at it on Wednesday night. They were pretty much second-best for the first 88 minutes at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

But Djed Spence did show some quality when he equalised after being put through by Dejan Kulusevski.

Moments later, Johnson completed the turnaround with a composed finish after a fine through-ball from Rodrigo Bentancur.
