Video: Dane Scarlett gets an assist for Portsmouth with inch-perfect cross

Dane Scarlett recorded his first goal contribution for Portsmouth today with a late assist for Owen Dale in a 3-1 win over Bristol Rovers. 

The on-loan Spurs youngster started the match on the bench but came on in the 64th minute and provided a perfect cross for Dale to head home in the dying minutes.

Scarlett will be hoping to kick on and earn consistent minutes this season with Pompey, much like fellow Spurs academy striker Troy Parrott did at MK Dons last year.

Spurs Web Opinion:

Goals and assists will breed confidence for Scarlett and that’s exactly what he needs to take the leap from exciting prospect to a viable option for Tottenham up front.
