Tottenham Hotspur star, Mathys Tel, expressed his satisfaction in scoring a crucial goal against Leeds United in their recent 2-1 victory. The forward, who completed a permanent move from Bayern Munich in the summer after an initial loan spell, was named in the starting lineup by manager Thomas Frank for the match at Elland Road.
Tel’s strike in the 23rd minute, which deflected off Pascal Struijk, put Spurs ahead in Yorkshire. Although Leeds managed to equalize through Noah Okafor, a goal from Mohammed Kudus in the second half secured all three points for the London side.
After the game, Tel emphasized his belief that he deserved the goal, attributing it to the team’s hard work and preparation leading up to the match against Leeds. He expressed his joy at finding the back of the net and highlighted the team’s collective effort and strong mentality, stating that they deserved the victory.
Acknowledging the challenge posed by Leeds, Tel commended his teammates for their resilience throughout the game. Looking ahead to their upcoming fixture against Aston Villa after the international break, Tel will aim to maintain his place in the team following his impactful performance against Leeds.
