Tottenham have made a sensational start to their clash with Southampton at St. Mary’s, taking the lead just 40 seconds into the match.
James Maddison, donning the number 10 shirt, delivered a composed finish to cap off a breathtaking opening move.
Djed Spence was at the heart of the build-up, showing excellent composure to shake off Flynn Downes in midfield. Spotting Maddison’s perfectly timed run, Spence slid a precise through-ball into the path of the playmaker.
With only Alex McCarthy to beat, Maddison kept his cool, firing low underneath the goalkeeper to find the far corner of the net.
The early strike has sent the traveling Spurs fans into raptures and set the tone for what promises to be an exciting contest.
