'Bergvall Hands Spurs Advantage!'

Last Word On Spurs

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Compère Richard Cracknell and Actors Ricky J Norwood and Darren Hartman as Eighteen-year-old Lucas Bergvall's first goal for Tottenham has given his side a precious 1-0 lead to take to Anfield in their Carabao Cup semi-final with Liverpool.

For Ange Postecoglou and his group, this could be a huge moment in their development. Spurs went into the tie already badly depleted and with new signing Antonin Kinsky thrown in for his debut in goal. They then lost Rodrigo Bentancur to a worrying first-half injury which saw the midfielder stretchered off and then taken to hospital. He later posted a positive update on social media, saying 'All good'. But with Kinsky impressing in his first game, including a sharp save in second-half stoppage time to deny Darwin Nunez, Spurs were able to limit an off-colour Liverpool. They could have been ahead earlier, too, with Pedro Porro seeing a shot blocked and then chipping wide when Bergvall caught Alisson in possession. However, Radu Dragusin was needed to block Trent Alexander-Arnold's fierce shot on the line.

While Spurs celebrated what they will hope to be a turning point after a four-game winless run, Slot's side have made a sluggish start to the New Year, first dropping points at home to Manchester United in the Premier League and now they leave London with an uphill battle to turn around this tie in the second leg on Thursday February 6.
