From the source

Tottenham Hotspur’s 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace provided plenty of headline moments, but the closing stages of the match offered a glimpse into the future of Hotspur Way.

Bringing off Mathys Tel, Roberto De Zerbi handed 18-year-old academy winger Luca Williams-Barnett his official Premier League debut, and the teenager responded with an electrifying cameo that brought the home crowd to its feet.

Gliding past Anan Khalaili and accelerating away from Darío Osorio, Williams-Barnett beat Chris Richards to the byline before cutting back a precise pass for Mohammed Kudus, who narrowly missed extending Spurs’ lead.
