Tottenham Fixtures: Spurs Seal 33-Point WSL Record in 2-1 Win

Tottenham fixtures ended with a 2-1 win over London City Lionesses at Brisbane Road, and that was enough to seal fifth place in the Women's Super League. The result also took Spurs to a club-record 33 points, one more than their previous best of 32 in 2021-22.

Brisbane Road Decides It

Signe Gaupset put Tottenham ahead, and Olivia Holdt doubled the lead with a right-footed shot from distance into the top-right corner. Holdt finished with seven goals for the season, matching her own total, as Spurs took control before London City pulled one back late.

Alanna Kennedy scored from close range for the visitors, but Tottenham held on after Lize Kop denied Freya Godfrey in stoppage time. That stop preserved a win that also ended Tottenham's run of four matches without victory.

Holdt And Gaupset Deliver

For Tottenham, the scoring came from two players who shaped the decisive moments. Gaupset opened the match, and Holdt finished it with the kind of strike that stretched the lead beyond a one-goal edge for most of the second half.

Kop missed out on a seventh clean sheet, but the late save from Godfrey kept the margin intact. Tottenham had conceded 37 goals under Martin Ho this season, including only 12 at home, which gives context to why the result mattered on a tight final day.

Tottenham's Fifth-Place Step

The win was Tottenham's 10th of the season and lifted them into the top five for only the second time. It also marked a sharp improvement from last season, when they finished 11th on goal difference after a final home defeat to Chelsea and a closing draw at Everton.

London City Lionesses stayed in seventh, while Tottenham closed the campaign with a record points total and a finish that sits well above last year's mid-table scrap. Bethany England remains the club's departing record goalscorer, but this finish belonged to the side that delivered at Brisbane Road when it counted.
