Black Stars midfielder Mohammed Kudus put up a Man of the Match performance in Tottenham Hotspur’s 2-1 away win over Leeds United on Saturday.
The Ghanaian set up Mathys Tel for the Frenchman’s first goal for the North London side before getting his.
Noah Okafor had pulled level for Leeds United before the break but the architect of the first goal hit an ambitious ball after a solo run and he scored.
Kudus’ goal in the 57th minute at Elland Road is his first since joining the club from West Ham United.
“I’m really happy to score my first goal and we got the three points,” he said after the game.
“Thank you guys for the support in a very rainy weather [but] you stick with us through thick and thin and I’m glad that you guys travelled all the way here to support us,” he had one for the fans.
The goal comes just before the international break.
He was named Player of the Match after the game.
Kudus’ winner takes his side to third on the Premier League standings.
His outstanding performance come barely 24 hours after his compatriot Antoine Semenyo also put up a Man of the Match performance in AFC Bournemouth’s 3-1 comeback win over Fulham.
Both players are set to travel to Casablanca, where the Black Stars gather to prepare for Wednesday’s World Cup qualifier against Central African Republic (CAR) .
