Tottenham, Maddison crowns Moore: “I thought we had Neymar on the left”

“From 46′ to 65′ I thought we had Neymar on the left.” Talk like this about Mikey Moorea very young winger born in 2007 for Tottenham, James Maddisonwho after the 1-0 success against AZ, praised Spurs’ talent: “He asked for the ball and was fearless, he has that mentality there. He’s a lovely boy and gets a lot of information from us.”

He let Richarlison take the penalty. Why?
“Initially we both wanted to take it. I’m an experienced player and I was the captain, I was about to take the penalty and then when I was there I talked to myself a bit and I realized that Richarlison had just come back from injury, it can be difficult for a striker, so it was a split-second decision to let him shoot. I understood that it would do him a world of good. I hope this gives him a big boost.”
