Joao Palhinha News: First goal with Spurs

Palhinha scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Manchester City.

Palhinha made his first start since being loaned to the club, with the midfielder earning 89 minutes of play. He would score his first goal for the club as well after capitalizing on a James Trafford mistake, leading to his first goal contribution with the club as well. The midfielder also got it done in the defense with two clearances and four tackles, appearing to be a solid option for Thomas Frank in the middle and doing well with life as a Spur.
