- Tottenham beat Newcastle 4-1 in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon
- Brennan Johnson’s Tottenham badge fell off his shirt shortly into the game
- Mauricio Pochettino has so much work to do with Chelsea – It’s All Kicking Off
Eagle-eyed 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 were quick to see that his Spurs badge was peeling off.
It didn’t take long for it to fall off altogether, leaving the 22-year-old with without a crest on his shirt.
Fans took to social media to point this out, questioning where it was and how it could have happened.
‘Why dosen’t Brennan Johnson’s shirt have the spurs badge on it?, asked one while another wrote ‘are my eyes alright or does Brennan Johnson not have a spurs badge on his shirt.’
Richarlison fired Tottenham to a first win since October 27 with a brace to inspire a 4-1 victory over Newcastle.
Spurs were Premier League leaders at the beginning of November, but had endured a barren run since after a succession of injuries and failed to win any of their last five matches despite taking the lead in each fixture.
It was a different story this time with Ange Postecoglou’s team selection paying dividends with the recalled Richarlison scoring twice after Destiny Udogie had broke the deadlock in the 26th minute.

Son Heung-min set up two of those goals after being moved back to the left wing and grabbed his 10th goal of the campaign with five minutes left from the penalty spot before Joelinton hit a stoppage-time consolation for Eddie Howe’s side.
Richarlison had one shot blocked and another deflected wide inside five minutes before Newcastle almost took the lead in the ninth minute.
Not long after Bruno Guimaraes had rifled over from 22 yards, Anthony Gordon broke the hosts’ offside trap, but Spurs defender Ben Davies got the faintest of touches to his cross and it was enough to put off Alexander Isak at the back post.
