Sporting CP and Tottenham were both victorious on the opening matchweek. Can either of them make it two Champions League wins out of two at Estadio Jose ...
Spurs have started on the front foot and Son wins a corner on the left-hand side. Conte has stuck with 10 of the 11 that beat Marseille, with Davies in for Lenglet on the left of the back three the only change. 35th minute: Nuno has had a lively half down the Sporting left and he forces Davies to clear for a throw-in. 4th minute: Dicey stuff at the back there from Sporting and Son could be in. 24th minute: Kane looks for Richarlison and finds him as Reis loses his footing trying to cut out the lofted pass. Wingback Emerson is the man arriving and his header forces a save from Adan. 48th minute: Kane gets down the left channel and delivers a quality cross. Son is the latest player to enjoy a chance thanks to Kane's ingenuity. 74th minute: Emerson plops a useless cross into Adan's arms and Conte is demanding answers on the touchline. But when the 23-year-old left Tottenham defenders trailing in his wake in Lisbon, it was easy to remember those quotes and think Pochettino might have had a point. Kane was the provider for Spurs’ best two chances of the match early in the second half, with a left-wing cross and a quick free-kick picking out Emerson Royal. Fulltime: Sporting's late show brings Tottenham and their early season enthusiasm crashing back down to earth in the space of three minutes.
When Richarlison first joined Antonio Conte's Tottenham Hotspur side, there were questions about how long it would take for him to earn regular minutes.
Heung-Min Son has yet to score a goal as Conte looks to play him into form but eventually, with Richarlison and Kulusevski performing well, Son will likely need to rest. Goncalves has four goals and three assists in league play so Spurs will need to be aware of his location all match. His next challenge will be an away trip to face a Sporting CP side that is struggling in Liga Portugal but still has threats to challenge Spurs if they aren't on their game. The team has been even, scoring seven goals with him and seven goals without him on the pitch, but four of those were during the opening match against Southampton that the Brazilian was suspended for. It was a similar story against Nottingham Forest who were pushing for an equalizer when Richarlison created an assist to Harry Kane to put the game out of sight. Following a brace against Marseille on matchday one, Richarlison now has two goals and two assists in six appearances for Spurs but that doesn't tell the story of his impact on the squad.
