    Spurs upped the tempo after the Brooks save from Gray. Fernandes was good. There was a flicker from Mikey Moore, even if the end product was not there. Then it was. Gloriously. When Moore moved inside from the right, the Charlton player close to him – Millenic Alli – slipped. Moore knew what he had to do and the sweetness of the left-footed connection took the breath. The shot ripped through the hands of Brooks. The power was too much.

    It took him just 11 minutes to score and it was a lovely goal – a glide inside from the right and a fizzing low shot into the near corner. There was more. Sávio once again showcased his skills when slicing inside, putting one Charlton defender down with a feint and getting away from another. The shot hit his teammate, Ben Davies, and went in.

  12. De Zerbi has been honest about how his team have not been ready to start the Premier League season – a result of injuries, players returning late from the World Cup and a pre-season tour to New Zealand and Australia that was sub-optimal, to say the least. The sense with his selection was of the calvary returning.

  4. 04 The Guardian Sport

    A new season at the snazziest modern stadium in England and something extremely welcome for Tottenham. A home win over domestic opposition. There were only four of them last season; three in the Premier League with the final one – over Everton on the last day – helping them to avoid relegation. Had they lost that, this Carabao Cup fixture against Charlton would also have been played in the Championship.
