Ange Postecoglou hailed a 3-0 victory against Elfsborg as a triumph crafted "in Tottenham" after his young stars made the impact needed. With key players injured, Dane Scarlett, Damola Ajayi, and Mikey Moore each scored their first goals for the club in a crucial late surge, ensuring Tottenham's progression to the last 16 of the Europa League. Remarkably, Spurs made history with three goal-scorers under 21, a feat last achieved by Arsenal in 2007, and Moore, at 17 years and 172 days, became the youngest English player to score in a major European competition, breaking a long-standing record.
"It was made in Tottenham tonight. I'm super pleased for the young boys, and we also shouldn't lose sight of the fact that we had a couple more teenagers out there too."
"We needed something tonight and the young lads stepped up. The objective was to try and win today and secure our spot in the top eight."
