Tottenham earned a hard-fought UEFA Europa League victory over AZ Alkmaar through a Richarlison penalty, as Mikey Moore lit up north London with a dazzling second-half display.
Moore switched wings at half-time as Timo Werner was withdrawn and the 17-year-old proceeded to torture the AZ defence, though it was a foul on Lucas Bergvall that won the match-winning spot-kick.
Richarlison had a spat with James Maddison over who would take the penalty but oozed confidence as he dispatched it straight down the middle, as Tottenham enjoyed a purple patch in the third quarter.
Both sides deserved more goals but Ange Postecoglou’s side controlled the final stages of the game to continue their perfect start to the competition. The win puts Tottenham second in the league phase, level on points with Lazio after three games.
