Brennan Johnson plays without the Tottenham badge on his shirt as fans spot bizarre kit error during emphatic win over Newcastle

  • Tottenham defeated Newcastle 4-1 in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon
  • Brennan Johnson's Tottenham badge fell off his shirt shortly into the match
  • Mauricio Pochettino has so much work to do at Chelsea It all starts

Astute viewers couldn't help but notice that one of Tottenham's players was the victim of a rather strange kit error during Sunday's brilliant win over Newcastle.

Brennan Johnson started the game and fans quickly noticed his Spurs badge coming off.

It didn't take long for it to fall off completely, leaving the 22-year-old without a badge on his shirt.

Fans took to social media to point this out, wondering where it was and how it could have happened.

“Why isn't there a Spurs badge on Brennan Johnson's jersey?” one asked, while another wrote: “Are my eyes clear or does Brennan Johnson not have a Spurs badge on his jersey?”

Richarlison fired Tottenham to a first win since October 27 with a brace to secure a 4-1 victory over Newcastle.

Spurs led the Premier League at the start of November but had since endured a barren run following a succession of injuries, failing to win any of their last five matches despite taking the lead in every match had taken.

This time it was a different story, with Ange Postecoglou's team selection paying off and the recalled Richarlison scoring twice after Destiny Udogie broke the deadlock in the 26th minute.

Son Heung-min scored two of those goals after being moved back to the left wing, grabbing his tenth goal of the season with five minutes to go from the penalty spot before Joelinton provided an injury-time consolation for Eddie Howe's side.

Richarlison had one shot blocked and another went wide inside five minutes before Newcastle almost took the lead in the ninth minute.

Not long after Bruno Guimaraes plundered from 22 yards, Anthony Gordon broke the hosts' offside trap, but Spurs defender Ben Davies got the faintest of touches from his cross and it was enough to deny Alexander Isak at the back post.
