LONDON: Tottenham Hotspur secured their first Premier League win of the season on Monday, beating Coventry City 3–1 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
James Maddison opened the scoring before Omar Marmoush restored the hosts’ lead after Jack Rudoni equalised. Substitute Ben Davies added a late third.
The victory lifted Roberto De Zerbi’s side from bottom to 16th. Frank Lampard’s Coventry dropped to 17th, with both clubs on six points. Coventry threatened early through Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, but Tottenham struck first in the 14th minute.
Mohammed Kudus beat his marker on the right and supplied Maddison, who curled a shot into the top corner. It was Maddison’s first league goal since February 2025.
