The London team won 2-1 against Leeds, thanks to goals from Pierre Emile Hojbjerg and Sergio Reguilón.
The first goal in England by the Spanish Sergio Reguilón led to the victory against Leeds by Marcelo Bielsa of Tottenham (2-1), the first that the London team has achieved in the Premier since the Italian Antonio Conte is on his bench.
It was in the 69th minute of the match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, when a free kick by Harry Kane hit the post. The former Real Madrid player picked up the rebound and beat Belgian Ilian Meslier.
The goal culminated in the comeback of Antonio Conte’s team, who made his debut on the Los Spurs on November 4 with the victory against Vitesse, in the Conference League. However, in his debut in the Premier League, the Italian coach did not go beyond a goalless draw against Everton.
The victory for Tottenham was endangered, which at the beginning of the second half found the scoreboard against when Daniel James took advantage of a ball received from Jack Harrison to overtake French goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and put Leeds ahead.
The local response was quick. Barely three minutes the advantage lasted to Marcelo Bielsa’s team because a pass from the Brazilian Lucas Moura was picked up by the Danish Pierre Emile Hojbjerg to achieve the tie.
Then came Reguilón’s goal, the first since he is in England and who gave Tottenham all three points.
With the victory, the London team rose to seventh position and was four points away from getting into the Champions zone. Meanwhile, Leeds remains in box 17, two points behind. (D)
