Mohammed Kudus delivers a quick assist on his Tottenham debut
Kudus began the game on the bench but was introduced right after halftime as Tottenham rolled out an entirely fresh XI for the second half.
The move proved immediately rewarding.
Barely 10 minutes into his unofficial debut, the 24-year-old served a reminder of his class.
Pouncing on a loose ball in the box, he threaded a delightful pass into the path of Luka Vuskovic.
The youngster coolly slotted it home, extending Spurs’ lead with composure beyond his years.

Building on momentum
That goal came shortly after Tottenham had broken the deadlock.
Just four minutes into the second half, Vuskovic turned provider, whipping in a pinpoint cross that Will Lankhear headed into the net for the game’s opener.
With his assist, Kudus didn’t just contribute on the stat sheet.
He also demonstrated his ability to seamlessly link up play and unlock defences, offering a glimpse into the exciting dynamic he brings to Thomas Frank’s system.
Promising start to pre-season
Tottenham approached the game with a split-squad strategy, fielding two different line-ups across each half as preparations ramp up ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign.
Kudus featured in the second group, and although it was only a pre-season fixture, his brief cameo has already fans buzzing with anticipation.
It was a confident, calculated performance that hinted at what’s to come in a white shirt.
