The talented Reiss Elliott-Parris produced a moment of pure magic to secure another dominant league victory against Southampton.
Tottenham Hotspur youth prospects delivered a complete masterclass against Southampton at Hotspur Way yesterday afternoon. The talented Under-18 squad completely dismantled the visitors to secure a massive domestic victory. Reiss Elliott Parris produced the most spectacular moment of the entire season during the dominant performance. The young forward spotted the visiting goalkeeper straying off his line and unleashed an outrageous shot from deep inside his own half. The unbelievably long range strike sailed perfectly into the net to spark wild celebrations among the stunned home supporters.
The attacker was nowhere near finished making a massive impact. The dynamic goal scorer capitalized on a fantastic forward pass from Tyler Tingey to grab his second strike. Armend Muslika also showcased incredible ability during the first period. The tenacious midfielder won crucial battles and eventually drove a beautiful low shot in off the far post. Walter Nutter managed to pull one back for the desperate away side directly from a corner kick just before the interval. Miracle Adewole then came off the bench later in the contest and instantly smashed home a fourth goal to kill the game.
A massive London derby awaits the league leaders
Jamie Carr expressed immense satisfaction with the ruthless finishing displayed by his young roster. The head coach spoke directly to the official club media channel regarding the impressive four goal haul. “Actually, in front of goal as well, we were clinical, so that was good overall,” the manager explained to the SPURSPLAY broadcasters. He specifically praised the incredible vision shown during the opening wonder goal. “It was a really good bit of quick thinking and assessment of what was around him,” the academy boss added during his post match interview.
The fantastic weekend result keeps the North Londoners four points clear at the top of the league table. The youth squad must now prepare for a monumental clash against second-placed Chelsea this Tuesday. The looming fixture looks like a genuine title decider for the high flying academy stars. Securing another three points would put the brilliant young side in complete control.
