EPL: Spurs go four games without scoring after 0-0 draw with Everton

Tottenham Hotspur's inaugural four Premier League matches concluded in a 0-0 draw against Everton on Saturday, extending their goalless streak. BBC Sport reported that the Spurs have failed to find the back of the net in over 400 minutes of football in their opening fixtures. The match witnessed an early opportunity for Tottenham when Jan Paul van Hecke headed a free-kick but missed the target.

Despite being the better side, Everton edged closer to a breakthrough after the break when Thierno Barry had a header blocked by Tottenham goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky. The match saw Kinsky come to the rescue again in the 65th minute after a misplaced pass from Everton's Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who narrowly avoided scoring the decisive goal.

This result leaves Spurs at 17th in the Premier League table, just a point above the relegation zone, while Everton maintains their unbeaten streak and secures seventh place.
