Tottenham Hotspur ran things close at the weekend against Wolves in the Premier League.
Spurs took the lead midway through the first half and eventually ran riot to a 3-0 buffer.
However, the Lilywhites gifted two goals back to the newly promoted Wolves as young Juan Foyth gave away two penalties.
The Argentinian youngster was making his Premier League debut after impressing in a man of the match winning performance against West Ham in the Carabao Cup.
However, it wasn’t a dream debut to remember, as Foyth gave his side a nervous ten minutes or so after Wolves converted both spot kicks.
One play who enjoyed opposite fortunes to Foyth in the game was in-form Erik Lamela.
Lamela notched himself another goal and an assist in the match, taking his record up to eight goals and three assists in his last 12 games.
