Tottenham Hotspur has stunned everyone as they have mathematically confirmed their place in the Premier League for the 2026/27 campaign with a 1-0 victory over Everton on the final day of the 2025/26 season.

Tottenham stuns everyone with last-gasp survival in Premier League as De Zerbi pulls off miracle
Manager Roberto De Zerbi, who took charge in late March amid a dire campaign, orchestrated a dramatic turnaround. His side had been winless in the league earlier in the year but collected crucial points in the run-in, including three wins in their final five matches.
De Zerbi's commitment to the club, even in the face of potential relegation, proved pivotal as Spurs avoided the drop for the first time since their last such scare in 1977. The tense final saw West Ham win 3-0 against Leeds, but it was not enough to bridge the gap.
Tottenham's survival, achieved under significant pressure at home, marks a modest success for a club that endured early-season turmoil, injuries, and inconsistent form. Fans and players celebrated the result as a hard-fought victory, providing a foundation for De Zerbi to build upon next season.
