Spurs lost out in
their opening FA Premier Academy League
fixture of the season at Middlesbrough
despite a spirited fight-back.
When the home side
moved long the left wing in the 12th minute,
the resulting cross was headed in at the far
post to give Boro the lead, but Tottenham
should have equalised when Kudos Oyenuga was
brought down in the area and Harry Kane had
the penalty kick saved.
Poor defensive work
let Boro in for a second goal on 18 minutes,
but Anton Blackwood hit back with a goal by
shooting home from inside the penalty area
with 25 minutes gone. Boro
re-established their two goal advantage with
a third goal scored before the half time
whistle.
Tottenham were
better in the second half, but could only
pull the score back to 2-3 with a fine goal
from Paul-Jose Mpoku to begin the campaign
with a defeat.

Spurs fell behind to
a goal with only 10 minutes remaining, but battled back
to gain a draw with a late goal.
Spurs goalkeeper
Lee Butcher kept Boro at bay with
a couple of good saves, before Tottenham lost Ryan Mason
in the 25th minute with a knee injury. His
replacement Alex Olsen had a good game up front, but
despite a lot of possession, the home side scored after
80 minutes. A Middlesbrough attack broke down, but
resulted in a free-kick, which was cleared, but when the
ball came back in, it resulted in a goal from a good
finish.
The lead only lasted for five
minutes, as Sol Asajile made ground on the right, before
he exchanged passes with Yaser Kasim, leaving him space
to find Jake Livermore, who produced a fine shot from 20
yards to level the scores. Tottenham almost won it
with Olsen's goal ruled out, but it was a good first
result of the season for the travelling Spurs team.
