In this game, Tottenham has two highlights. One is that Frick coaches the team to boldly use new players, especially the third midfielder, who is only 20 years old per capita, and young people are able to run and are motivated; the other is that new player Kudus activated Richarlison. The Brazilian center is always looked down upon by fans and media, but his Brazilian national team scores more goals than Real Madrid's Brazilian twins (Vinicius + Rodrigo) combined. In this game, Kudus' sharp offensive on the right side found Richarlison with two crosses, the latter volleyed and the wonderful barb, completing the second goal, which was really exciting. Although Johnson scored Tottenham's third goal, overall, Tottenham's left offense is still the team's biggest shortcoming, similar to the situation in Arsenal.
