His Spurs side then failed to register a single shot on target against the relegation-threatened Cherries as Mourinho’s squad ended up winless on the road for the sixth consecutive game in all competitions.
The Portuguese boss did manage to speak to Sky Sports after the disappointing draw, saying: ‘I feel I got enough desire and they [Spurs] couldn’t give more today.
‘We were dominant behind but then there was lack of sharpness in the attacking areas.
‘I made changes, I think the changes helped to improve the game in the last half but we didn’t score.
‘Credit to Bournemouth. I was a bit surprised because I thought they wanted to win the game and I was surprised they just wanted a point – but maybe they did their maths and I think a point gives them a chance.’
Tottenham’s next match is a mouth-watering north London derby at home to Arsenal, who are unbeaten in their last five games, a run which has seen them win four times.
While confirming that all remaining continental matches will be played at empty stadiums, European football’s governing body said every outstanding second-leg game will take place at the home team’s ground.

The ongoing impact of coronavirus will see the Champions League quarter-finals, semi-finals and final all held at a mini tournament behind closed doors in Portugal.
A UEFA statement read: ‘Consistent with the principle of sporting fairness and considering that current conditions – all clubs due to play at home the return leg of the round of 16 are currently playing the remaining matches of their domestic leagues in their own stadiums and that travelling is possible without restrictions for the visiting clubs – the UEFA Executive Committee decided that the remaining UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League Round of 16 second-leg matches will be played at the home teams’ stadiums.’
The decision means that Wolves will be able to play the return leg of their Europa League round-of-16 encounter with Olympiacos at Molineux after the first fixture ended 1-1.
Manchester United can wrap up progress to the Europa League last eight tournament in Germany at an empty Old Trafford, having romped to a 5-0 triumph at LASK back in March.
Osimhen was Lille top goal scorer last season with 13 League Goals.
The Lille striker visited the Napoli facilities this week, was shown around the city and visited President Aurelio De Laurentiis on the island of Capri.
This charm offensive was to convince the Nigeria international to accept the move, as he remains unconvinced by the idea of playing in Italy.
According to Calciomercato.it and our sources in Nigeria, Osimhen has promised to give Napoli a response either way by Tuesday.
It’s believed this is because he has been waiting for Premier League offers to come in from Arsenal or Manchester United.
Essentially, he would be the first choice to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang if he fails to agree a new contract with the Gunners.
However, there’s little sign of that happening, especially at the €50m plus that Lille are asking for.
Lille President Gerard Lopez has publicly and personally advised Osimhen to take the Napoli proposal.
This would be the second time Napoli missed out on a Lille player because of Arsenal, after losing the bidding war for €80m Nicolas Pepe last summer.

Kipsang is a winner several marathon such as; The Berthlin Marathon 2013,London 2012 and 2014,New You in 2014 and Tokyo in 2017
Concerns are growing from friends and the public for the well-being of Kenyan marathon ace Wilson Kipsang.
The former marathon world record holder appeared to be drunk during a TV interview about his recent four year ban in athletics.
Kipsang, who is a policeman, is yet to respond to BBC Sport Africa’s request for a comment about his TV appearance.
Elias Kiptum, a friend of Kipsang’s, told BBC Sport Africa he is concerned about the athlete.
“He’s tried to control his stress by drinking and this is what it has become a worry to us,” he said.
“On his live interview on TV, personally I arrived when the show was already done and if I were to advise to him, I would have requested him not to do the interview in that state.
“I think the biggest issue is not about him listening but that he has gotten himself in with his friends who are more about drinking…”.
The latest incident comes after his arrest with 20 others in April for locking themselves in a bar and drinking alcohol in breach of a curfew imposed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Kipsang’s ban was imposed on 3 July this year for missing four out-of-competition drugs tests.
The 38-year-old broke the marathon world record in September 2013 in Berlin and held the mark for a year until his compatriot Dennis Kimetto went faster a year later in the same race.
Arriving illegally in France in 2013, Francis Ngannou today goes head-to-head with the greatest fighters of MMA, a discipline combining the techniques of judo, karate, jiu-jitsu and Thai boxing. The 32-year-old Cameroonian now earns his living from the sport in Las Vegas. InfoMigrants retraces the path that took the champion from sleeping in a Parisian parking lot to his extraordinary destiny.
“I always knew that one day I would be a great boxer,” Francis Ngannou says. Considering his size, no one would doubt that statement. He is nearly 6-foot-8 tall and weighs 260 pounds. His name might not ring any bells, but in just a few years Francis Ngannou has become recognized in his discipline MMA (mixed martial arts) – a combat sport that combines jiu-jitsu, karate, judo and Thai boxing.
Ranked fourth in the world, the “Predator,” as he calls himself, is currently in Paris training for his next fight, which will be held in China on November 24. The event will be of historic proportions; though it is still little-known in France, MMA is hugely popular in the United States, and fights are aired on television and watched by millions of viewers.
It’s no wonder then that his lifestyle is one of luxury, starting with the house he owns in Las Vegas. Today, Ngannou is all bling, sporting a gold watch, light pink loafers that match his sweater and a fancy Canadian down parka. His life has radically changed.
Ngannou’s life is an unlikely success story. Born in Cameroon in 1986, the boxer had a difficult childhood. The second child in a family of five, he was shifted from house to house after his parents divorced when he was only six years old. “I changed schools all the time, and sometimes even transferred in the middle of the year because I went to stay with a different uncle,” he says. At the age of 10, Ngannou began working on his first “little job.” It wasn’t the easiest one either: he worked in a sand quarry in his native village, Batié, in the Cameroonian highlands, to be able to pay for his schooling. It was an exhausting job for a child.
A few years later, Ngannou moved to Douala and, at the age of 22, began boxing at a small club in the city. “I don’t really know why,” he says, “The sport isn’t even known in Cameroon.” But before long, he sold everything he owned to support and follow his new passion. The young man sacrificed his motorcycle to buy his first set of sport equipment. “Everybody told me I was crazy. It was a delusion to my family,” he says in a soft voice that contrasts with his stature.
This rough patch experienced by the champ helped in shapen the man/star and role model he has today. Hopefully one day, we as Cameroonians will witnessed the crowning of the “Predator” as world heavy weight champion.
The Cameroonian football federation won its lawsuit against the Guimar company, which was responsible for constructing the new headquarters building for the institution. This contract was awarded to him by the former executive committee led by Iya Mohamed in 2012. The structure has been largely completed. But with the tremors that kept Cameroonian football in suspense, with the imprisonment of Iya, the takeover of two Standardization Committees, led by Owona and Happi, the interlocutor Tombi A Roko and now Seidou Mbombo Njoya, construction monitoring and payments to the contractor were definitely not the priority.
In a context where the emergencies were clearly elsewhere, Coronavirus obliges, the information could easily have gone unnoticed. The Cameroonian Football Federation (Fecafoot) had indeed decided to relaunch the construction of its headquarters. A call for tenders had thus been launched since March 17, “ for the completion works ” of the said building in the Warda district. Works, according to the call for tenders, of reinforced concrete, masonry, wood, metal and aluminum carpentry, painting, sanitary plumbing, electricity, framework and roofing. All to be delivered in six months. Either well before CAN 2021.
60 people are waiting to be heard by the ethics commission of Fecafoot(Cameroon Football Federation) who are being cited for match fixing.
The President of Fecafoot Seidou Mbombo Njoya said on Tuesday “I followed with great attention the hearings of the Ethics Communitee of Fecafoot,assisted by the Integrity Officer, for suspicious bets on certain matches of the 2019-2020 season”.The matches on which the bets were placed were not mentioned.
This initiatives is being backed by World Football governing body FIFA as they’re strong against the practice of match fixing. The Cameroon championship came to a premature stop due to the ongoing corona pandemic.
