Alejo Véliz and Ben Davies scored for Tottenham, salvaging some dignity.

Brighton's dominance shines as they secure a 4-2 victory with goals from multiple players.

Late in the game, Tottenham made a desperate push, led by Véliz and Davies.

A valiant effort, but it fell short as Brighton's lead was too great.
