Leeds claimed a significant Premier League victory over Tottenham at Elland Road on Saturday, with Okafor scoring the decisive goal, according to The Sun. The result adds to Tottenham's difficulties on a day when Mathys Tel was injured.

The match was overshadowed by a challenge from Leeds defender Jayden Bogle on Tel. The Guardian reports that Bogle escaped a red card for the tackle, which left Tottenham aggrieved. Sky Sports reports that Tottenham intend to submit a complaint to Pro Ref over the incident.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi, speaking after the defeat, pointed to his own players' shortcomings rather than the referee's decisions, according to The Telegraph. The BBC reported that De Zerbi focused on Tottenham's failings while questions lingered over whether Bogle should have been sent off.

The win is a notable one for Leeds against a Spurs side now facing scrutiny over both its performance and its response to the officiating. The Bogle challenge and Tel's injury are likely to remain talking points in the coming days.

What to watch next: whether Tottenham's complaint to Pro Ref leads to any review of the Bogle tackle, and how both clubs respond in their next Premier League fixtures.
