Micky Hazard has described Tottenham’s first game at their new stadium as ‘some day’ after the club’s under-18’s recorded a historic 3-1 win against Southampton youngsters.

Teenager J’Neil Bennett became the first player to score at Spurs’ new stadium with his curling effort from outside of the area going down in the history books.

Harvey White doubled his side’s lead in the first half from the penalty spot before Dilan Markanday sealed the points and a memorable win for the London club.

After the game, club legend Hazard posted an emotional message on his personal Twitter account.

On April 3, Tottenham’s senior team will take to the field for the first time in the Premier League when they welcome London neighbours Crystal Palace [Sky Sports].

There is no doubt that they will want to start off with a win, with the supporters more than likely hoping that star man Harry Kane gets on the scoresheet.

The England captain is currently on international duty and recently helped the Three Lions record an emphatic 5-0 win over the Czech Republic in their opening Euro 2020 qualifier – Kane netted from the penalty spot.

The Spurs man will be hoping to make his mark once again when Gareth Southgate’s side take on Montenegro on Monday night as he will be looking to return to club football in a rich vein of form.

At this moment in time, Mauricio Pochettino’s side are sitting third in the table following a four-game winless run in the league, with the Champions League chasing pack closing in on them in the table.
