Cristian Romero Scores Opening Goal for Tottenham Against Brentford in Premier League Debut

Cristian Romero scored 1-0 for Tottenham against Brentford

The 2023/24 Premier League season began with the trend that its audience is already accustomed to: many goals, even games and an Argentine presence in several of the members of the Big Six. This Sunday it was the turn of Tottenham Hotspur to have their debut in the championship with a visit to the difficult Brentford and Cristian Romero appeared as a starter. However, Cuti lasted 13 minutes on the court, but that fragment was enough to put his name on the scoreboard.

The first 60 seconds of the game were running when the Cordovan jumped to dispute a ball with Bryan Mbeumo and headed the French-born forward on the neck. Both were left feeling on the ground and medical assistance rushed in to make sure that the protagonists of the crash were out of danger. After a while with the match slowed down, referee Robert Jones summarized the duel and neither player was replaced at that time.

At 10 minutes into the first half, James Maddison created a free-kick near the local box area and started waving to a specific teammate: Cuti Romero. The defender perfectly understood the orders of the reinforcement that had arrived from Leicester City, attacked the Brentford penalty area and sealed the 1-0 score with a strong front that overcame the resistance of Mark Flekken. At the celebration, the one that emerged in Belgrano asked his colleagues not to jump on him since he was still feeling the previous clash.

Technology intervened in the match to check Romero’s starting position at the time of execution for a possible offside. Finally, Cristian was empowered and the judge validated the goal to unleash the second celebration of the Spurs. On the return to midfield, Cuti looked at the substitute bench and raised his thumb to clarify that he was fit to continue. Little did coach Angelos Postecoglou care that he did not interrupt the change and generated the complaint on the air of the Argentine.

The Premier League graphic clarified that the center-back entered the concussion protocol that has a specific section in the regulations: “If there is suspicion that a player suffered a concussion, the player must be removed from the field of play and he must not be allowed to return. If the footballer was replaced due to suspected or confirmed concussion, he must be monitored until he is considered fit and capable of leaving the venue.

Davinson Sánchez entered the game in Romero’s place and Brentford quickly turned the tables with goals from their forwards: Mbeumo from a penalty at 26′ and Yoane Wissa at 36′. Before halftime, the Brazilian Emerson Royal finished off from mid-distance to make it 2-2 and go into the break with the score even. During the second half, Tottenham pressed against the local goal but lacked clarity to finish off the chances and points were distributed at the Gtech Community Stadium.
