Cuti Romero’s impressive header in the win over Everton: Tottenham have achieved their first victory in the Premier League

At the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the home side were strong and confirmed their credentials as candidates to fight for the title or qualify for European competitions through the Premier League standings. In the second round of the English tournament, Spurs beat Everton 4-0 with a goal from Cuti Romero. The other goals for the team led by Australian Angelos Postecoglou were scored by Malian Yves Bissouma and South Korean Son Heung-Min (who scored twice).

With this result, the Londoners managed to put behind them the 1-1 draw against Leicester City away and achieved their first victory of the season, which allows them to collect four points and be runners-up to Brighton And Hove (earlier they beat Manchester United at the last minute) and Manchester City (beat Ipswich Town 4-1) along with Nottingham Forest, with three matches left on Sunday (Bournemouth will host Newcastle, Wolverhampton will face Chelsea and Liverpool will face Brentford) and the last one on Saturday (Aston Villa-Arsenal).

The visiting side, meanwhile, continues with a performance similar to last season, where they were at the bottom of the table. Sean Dyche’s team has lost both of their matches so far, as in their debut they succumbed 3-0 at home to Brighton.

In addition to the goal, the former Belgrano de Córdoba player was one of the pillars of the Londoners in the match, leading several statistical categories such as being first in tackles (5/5), in touches (112), in accurate passes (87 of 93 attempts) and in duels won (10 of 17). In addition, he was the second player who made the most passes in the final third, with eight.

Tottenham established their supremacy from the start thanks to a goal from Yves Bissouma and another from Son Heung-Min, who took advantage of a gross error by goalkeeper Jordan Pickford when trying to play out from the back. Then, in the second half, the world champion and two-time champion of America with the Argentine national team demonstrated their offensive power by beating two rivals in a corner. The South Korean striker appeared again to decree the 4-0.

Spurs, who will be playing in the Europa League this season, will be back in action on Sunday 1st September when they travel to St James’ Park to visit Newcastle (they beat Southampton 1-0 in the first matchday). On Saturday 31st September, Everton will host Bournemouth (they drew against Nottingham Forest).
