Tottenham Under-18s reach 33 goals in six games as sensational Oliver Boast nets four in West Brom rout

Published:

A blistering attacking display at Enfield saw the young Lilywhites dismantle West Bromwich Albion in a ruthless seven-goal demolition to preserve their flawless start to the season.

Goals are arriving at an astonishing rate for the academy prospects. The Under 18s side delivered another masterclass on Saturday afternoon, putting seven past a shellshocked Baggies setup. Striker Oliver Boast took centre stage with a destructive individual performance, netting four times to leave the visitors completely helpless.

The prolific attacker wasted no time stamping his authority on proceedings. He opened the scoring inside five minutes after connecting with a sharp low delivery from Joel Vidal Philbert. Just minutes later, midfield dynamo Armend Muslika produced a moment of pure magic, spotting the opposition goalkeeper off his line and launching a sensational thirty-five-yard lob into the net.

Boast struck again shortly after, tapping home at the back post before rising majestically to nod in his hat trick within twenty three minutes. A deflected cross forced an unfortunate own goal from Tyrell Hutchinson before the interval, putting the North Londoners five goals clear before the break.

There was no respite following the restart. Boast grabbed his fourth goal just two minutes into the second period, cleverly flicking a cross over the keeper. While Frazer Billings managed a consolation strike for the visitors, substitute Phoenix Offiah raced clear in stoppage time to calmly round off an astonishing rout.

The young Lilywhites have now racked up thirty-three goals in just six league outings, showcasing terrifying firepower. New signing Kwasi Senyah also made his bow from the bench during a fluid second half. Coach Jamie Carr expressed immense satisfaction with how his side dictated proceedings from the opening whistle.

Speaking to SPURSPLAY after the final whistle, Carr admitted he anticipated a physical test against a rigid defensive block. The youth boss highlighted their ball retention, stating, “Overall, I think in the first half, what pleased me the most was the in possession stuff. We looked a threat all the time.” The future looks bright.
