LONDON – Tottenham Hotspur wasted a golden chance to ease its Premier League relegation fears as Dominic Calvert-Lewin's penalty earned Leeds United a ⁠1-1 draw in North London on Monday.

A first home win in the league since December would have put Spurs four points clear of 18th-placed West Ham United with two games left and in sight of salvation after a woeful season.

It looked on the cards when Mathys Tel struck with a stunning effort early in the second half, curling a right-footed shot into the top corner to raise the roof in the ​stadium.
