Tottenham will play Bayern again at their home stadium next weekend

Tottenham slipped to their first defeat of pre-season as they were beaten 2-1 by Bayern Munich in front of a 67,000 sell-out crowd in Seoul.

Son Heung-min, James Maddison and summer signings Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall all featured for Spurs, who were outplayed by the Bundesliga giants despite the absence of Harry Kane.

Gabriel Vidovic capitalised on a poor pass out from Spurs goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario to give Bayern an early lead, and Leon Goretzka doubled their advantage after the break.

Pedro Porro’s 25-yard strike reduced the arrears but Spurs were unable to find an equaliser against Bayern, who also gave former Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha a second-half run out.

Ange Postecoglou’s side are next in action on Saturday, 10 August, when they will face Bayern again at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (17:30 BST).

Elsewhere, Newcastle suffered a 2-0 loss to Yokohama F Marinos in the final match of their tour of Japan.

Goals from Brazilian winger Elber and midfielder Jun Amano proved enough for the J League club in Tokyo as Lloyd Kelly made his first appearance in Newcastle colours.

Who else is in action?

A number of Premier League clubs are currently on overseas tours as they prepare for the new campaign.

Aston Villa face Mexico’s Club America in Chicago on Saturday (22:30 BST), while Chelsea play Manchester City at the Ohio Stadium, Columbus, at the same time.

Newly-promoted Ipswich beat Bundesliga side Hoffenheim 1-0 in Austria, while back in England Southampton claimed a narrow 1-0 victory at Millwall.

Brentford, Brighton and Everton are also in action on Saturday.
