Dejan Kulusevski has taken the HSBC Player of the Match award after an inspired late cameo from the Swede helped us turnaround our Carabao Cup tie with Coventry City on Wednesday.
Coming on with just 16 minutes to play at the Coventry Building Society Arena, the forward was pivotal in turning the game in our favour late on as his dynamism and determination helped us come from 1-0 down to win 2-1.
Eager to run at defenders and not taking no for an answer from a stubborn Coventry defence, that was most notable when Deki managed to pick the lock of the Sky Blues' backline on 88 minutes and provide the key pass for Djed Spence's equaliser.
And, despite being on the pitch for just 16 minutes, the Sweden international managed to have more shots than any other Spurs player.
