Tottenham Hotspur failed to score again in a 0-0 draw with Everton, extending their Premier League goalless streak to 407 minutes. Despite over £300m spent in summer, Roberto de Zerbi's side struggled to threaten Jordan Pickford's goal. The banner 'Please Score A Goal' reflected fan frustration as Spurs recorded their first goalless start to a season across all four tiers since 2006.

De Zerbi apologised to supporters, saying 'I'm sorry to the fans.' Everton also lacked attacking threat, missing chances through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Brennan Johnson. Mateus Fernandes had Spurs' first shot on target after 46 minutes, drawing ironic applause. Late substitute Lucas Bergvall nearly won it with a long-range effort saved by Pickford.

Richarlison watched from the bench amid contract disputes. Spurs' non-penalty expected goals per shot is just 0.066, implying a 6.6% conversion rate.
