Tottenham Hotspur got off to a flying start under new manager Thomas Frank, cruising to a 3-0 victory over Burnley in their Premier League opener. The north London side made three changes from the team that drew against PSG on Wednesday night, and it paid off as they dominated possession and scoring chances.
The Spurs goal came just 10 minutes into the game when Mohammed Kudus picked out Richarlison with a low cross, which he hooked home with ease. Brazil’s star striker doubled his tally with a stunning scissors kick from Kudus’ cross, leaving the crowd in awe.
Brennan Johnson sealed the win for Spurs with a well-taken goal, flicking past Martin Dubravka after Pape Matar Sarr had played him through with a clever pass. Richarlison also played a key role, holding up the ball and setting up opportunities for his teammates.
Frank’s side was solid throughout, with Djed Spence continuing to impress as a left-back. Archie Gray, who made his debut, was tidy in everything he did, while Micky van de Ven controlled the midfield with ease.
The win is a promising start for Frank’s side, and it will be interesting to see how they build on this performance against the rest of their Premier League opponents.
