Dane Scarlett raided the arrival in his space the first purpose for 70 minutes, more than 4 years since his spurs debut at the Festival opposed to Ludogorets in November 2020.
It didn’t take long for Damola Ajayi to mark his debut with a fine goal for 2-0, just three minutes after coming off the bench, the 19-year-old darted in from the right, exchanged passes with Scarlett and fired low into the corner for 2-0 (84 minutes).
He let Mikey Moore put the icing on the cake with the third in extra time, this time by pulling away from his marker in the middle, driving into the box and coming back through goalkeeper Isak Pettersson in the far corner.

Going to our subsequent review, an Ultra Alegre Angel said: “It was a night in Tottenham. This is an incredibly proud moment for the club and all the coaches of the academy and all the other people who had something to do with the children. All academy players. It is also a massive stimulus for them than the boys with whom they shared a marked wardrobe for their club at home a European night. It is a wonderful night for the club and all the merit of the total academy and other people who worked with them. The boys were wonderful. We knew we would like the floors and delivered it. »
“We reviewed it. We had to be patient. We knew they would be pretty profound, and they did. There wasn’t much area there, however, we knew that if we educated and controlled, the areas would open up. We also had to manage the players tonight. We have a great week forward and I knew at one point that we would have a pretty young team there, especially towards the end. “
“The club should take pride in that, tremendous pride. It’s a credit to the club, an important part of the club. The fans love seeing their own out there. It was a perfect night for all three to score and contribute. It’s a night they’ll never forget, and a great night for the club as well.”
“We had a look at his situation, I made the decision during the week that he’s better off staying with us. Whether he’ll play much or not, we’ll see, but at least he’ll feel part of it. He’ll train with us, which is important and, rather than just send him out (on loan) again, it was a good opportunity to bring him back into the fold, show him a bit of love, and he delivered tonight. He’s got a lot of work to do and training with us will help him. We know he’s a quality finisher, he showed that tonight. His general link up play was good as well.”
“I’m not sure. We try to drive our players tonight knowing the week we arrived and that’s why we leave it apart for the first half. It seems that he was injured in the knee.
“I hope we get there. They will all have to return at the same time, in a few weeks. You saw tonight, even having Micky (Van de Ven) back, not just because he’s a player. Provide to the rest of the group.
“We were enjoying it as well. You should enjoy it. People can say, ‘look at the opposition’, but it’s a European night, you’ve young Tottenham boys out there, plus a couple of 18-year-olds who aren’t Tottenham boys, but are doing an unbelievable job for us. You have to enjoy those nights, It’s a special night for the club.”
