Man City vs Everton LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

Antonio Conte registered a first Premier League win in charge of Tottenham as they came from behind to beat Leeds 2-1, but will have been left in no doubt just how big a job he has on his hands.

Conte, who oversaw two games before the international break, watched his new side booed off at half-time after falling behind to Dan James’ strike.

But a much-improved second-half performance saw goals from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Sergio Reguilon earn the three points and end a three-game winless run.

Leeds’ Kalvin Phillips spoke to Sky Sports after their defeat to Tottenham and touched on playing in defence and a lack of game management that saw Leeds surrender a lead to lose 2-1 at Spurs. He said:

As Tottenham trudged down the tunnel to a chorus of boos at half-time, Antonio Conte bowed his head and took a deep breath.

He had spent the entire first half pointing and puffing, ranting and remonstrating, desperately trying to coax some intent – and basic coordination – from his players, who trailed Leeds by a goal and had failed to produce a shot on target in almost five hours.

The words spoken by Conte in that 15 minutes in the dressing room, though, will breathe plenty of life and carry the promise of being a decisive turning point in Spurs’ season.

When they emerged for the second half, Tottenham were inspired and irrepressible as Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s equaliser at last ended their goal drought before Sergio Reguilon’s rebound sealed a hard-fought, helter-skelter but ultimately well-deserved 2-1 victory.

Is Conte the man to lead Tottenham to their next trophy?

Matchwinner Sergio Reguilon gave a delightful interview to Sky Sports following Tottenham’s win. Pleased with his team’s performance and the impact of the new manager, he said:

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg has now scored as many goals in 50 Premier League appearances for Tottenham as he managed in 109 for Southampton (four). All four of his league goals for Spurs have come at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

It’s good news for Tottenham who jump above Manchester United to sit in seventh place. They’re now just four points off the top four and will be thinking about pushing for those Champions League places.

Leeds are not where they want to be. Injuries have played a big part in that but they’re 17th and just two points above the relegation zone. There’s enough talent in their squad to keep them up but Burnley (18th) have a way of drawing teams into relegation battles and coming out on top.

It’s a big three points for Tottenham who not only record their first league win in four games but also their first goals. Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Sergio Reguilon both got on the scoresheet as Tottenham came from behind to beat Leeds 2-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

90+4 mins: A remarkable comeback victory from Tottenham Hotspur sees them beat Leeds at home to give Antonio Conte his first victory as Spurs boss. The Italian celebrates wildly as the full-time whistle goes. He’s taken four points from his opening two games. Leeds will be gutted, they were the better team in the first half but just ran out of gas in the second. Their struggles continue.
