SPURS REMAIN PERFECT THANKS TO RICHARLISON PENALTY
Tottenham earned a hard-fought UEFA Europa League victory over AZ Alkmaar through a Richarlison penalty, as Mikey Moore lit up north London with a dazzling second-half display.
Moore switched wings at half-time as Timo Werner was withdrawn and the 17-year-old proceeded to torture the AZ defence, though it was a foul on Lucas Bergvall that won the match-winning spot-kick.

Richarlison had a spat with James Maddison over who would take the penalty but oozed confidence as he dispatched it straight down the middle, as Tottenham enjoyed a purple patch in the third quarter.
Both sides deserved more goals but Ange Postecoglou’s side controlled the final stages of the game to continue their perfect start to the competition. The win puts Tottenham second in the league phase, level on points with Lazio after three games.

FULL-TIME: TOTTENHAM 1-0 AZ ALKMAAR
They don't succeed though, and that one goal is enough for Spurs! It's been a game that deserved more on the scoresheet but Ange Postecoglou won't care, and must be proud of the way his team responded in the second-half.
And there'll be a bit more time for AZ to try for an equaliser after that check.

VAR are involved, though once again it's somewhat a mystery how Tottenham didn't put it away in open play!
A flowing move sees Odobert put through on goal but he can't get his attempt on target or find a teammate. He stays down clutching his left after contact with the goalie.

And minutes after going into the book, Kwakman almost gets another yellow for a challenge on Johnson.

As a boy with a 'Mikey Moore can I have your shirt' receives directions from his older companion, it's a rousing applause greeting the teenager. And a welcome return for Wilson Odobert too, he's not featured since mid-September due to a hamstring injury.

It's a second red card in as many games for David Moller Woffe! Sent off after just 10 minutes at the weekend against PSV, he receives a second yellow for catching Johnson after he'd passed the ball.

Spurs are allowing their guests to stay in the competition here. Parrott dispossesses the defence once more but just can't quite shake loose to pass to the onrushing Poku before Dragusin fills the passing lane and intercepts.

WATCH: MADDISON AND RICHARLISON ARGUE OVER PENALTY
It was all smiles afterwards, but things threatened to get ugly for a moment.
How has this game still only got one goal? Parrott puts Lahdo through on goal after Ben Davies is caught out, and the substitute drills it low and hard. But Forster reads it well and puts his whole body behind the ball, retaining the slender lead.

It's been a better outing for Maddison, who'd fallen into a habit of half-time substitutions recently.

Guess who? Poku of course, he receives a bouncing ball but the angle works against him and he can't shape to shoot.
AZ recycle though and are unlucky not to earn a corner before Bergvall slumps to the turf, Dejan Kulusevski has immediately started warming up.
66'
Well this has been coming. 21 minutes after he switched wings, Mikey Moore's opposing full-back has left the fray.
It just looked like cramp for the Brazilian who had been set to leave us anyway. Dominic Solanke's first involvement will be from a corner.

Poku gives a no-look pass for Moller Wolfe who surges into the box but meets a sliding Dragusin, AZ have a set-piece though...
And it comes to nothing with a relatively harmless corner.
Mikey Moore will surely end up with a goal contribution tonight. And it could well have been then, beating Maikuma with consumate ease then firing across the six-yard box.
Unfortunately, no one had gambled on getting themselves in position to finish and it remains 1-0.
