What happened between Gareth Bale, Lucas Moura and Serge Aurier ahead of Tottenham vs Brighton

Tottenham Hotspur players got into the spirit of Halloween ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash against Brighton and Hove Albion.

The Lilywhites will go into the game on the back of a disappointing 1-0 loss at the hands of Royal Antwerp in the Europa League on Thursday evening.

However, they can stretch their unbeaten run in the Premier League to six games if they can finally record a victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium following a loss to Everton as well as draws with Newcastle United and West Ham United.

Mourinho frustrated with players as Spurs lose out to Royal Antwerp

Ahead of the game in north London, the club uploaded a special treat for supporters.

A 'Spurs TV Halloween Special 2020' has gone up on the club's official YouTube account and at around the 3.28 minute mark there's an hilarious moment involving Gareth Bale.

As the Welshman is doing his media duties, two masked men come into shot as they slowly creep up behind the winger who is seated and clearly has no idea about what's happening.

Moments later the player in the pink mask jumps out in front of Bale.

Although, to the 31-year-old's credit, he didn't appear to be one bit scared as his response was an expletive which had to be bleeped out.

It turned out that the Spurs ace behind the mask was Serge Aurier, while Lucas Moura was his pranking partner.

Bale clearly saw the funny side as he uploaded a preview of the clip onto his Instagram Stories.

The video clip was met with a positive response among a number of Spurs fans, some of which had a message for Bale.

EniolaandJola Alao said: "Now I know why bale left Madrid."

Nico Gregory said: "Welcome back to London, Bale."
