It was a lost opportunity for Tottenham Hotspur, who fell 2-1 at Newcastle United on Sunday for their first loss of the young Premier League campaign.
Spurs enjoyed a big possession advantage over their hosts and outshot the Magpies 20-9 (6-3 on target), but they weren't able to prevent Alexander Isak from scoring in the 78th minute to give the home side all three points.
Instead, Tottenham exited St. James' Park without a result, leaving manager Ange Postecoglou to lament his side's lack of sharpness in front of goal.
"Story of our season so far really," Potecoglou told BBC Match of the Day. "We played well and controlled the game for the most part. They were a threat in transition but we still had enough chances to win the game comfortably.
"I thought we were handling the transitions. The goal we conceded in the second half was sloppy and we lost focus. The game should have been put to bed a lot longer before that.
"What I know is if we continue to play like that we will get our rewards. It's not an easy place to come. For the most part, I thought we handled that really well. The way we controlled the game was really pleasing.
"Frustrating more than anything else. It's three good performances but not the results that reflect that."
Things don't get easier for Tottenham, who host rivals Arsenal in the North London Derby following the international break.
