Tottenham Hotspur players can finally enjoy a break after playing against Newcastle United in a post-season friendly over in Australia. The final day of the Premier League season came and went on Sunday with Tottenham securing a spot in the Europa League thanks to a win over Sheffield United. Tottenham then took the rather bizarre step to jet straight off to Australia, facing off against Newcastle in a friendly over in Melbourne. Spurs played out a 1-1 draw as James Maddison’s opener was cancelled out by an Alexander Isak leveller for the Magpies. The game went to penalties and Newcastle came ...

Southampton are preparing for the biggest game of their season as they face Leeds United in the Championship play-off final on Sunday. The two sides will go head to head for the third time this season, with Southampton boasting two wins from two so far. The most recent of those wins was just three weeks ago, which could give Southampton a psychological edge over Leeds at Wembley. Controversially, Leeds do have the luxury of being the ‘home’ side at the neutral venue due to finishing above Southampton in the league which means they will get to wear their home colours in the showpiece event.

Ange Postecoglou handed Moore another chance to impress on the final day at Sheffield United, with the youngster replacing James Maddison in the 88th minute. The talented winger expressed his pride after his d...

James Maddison had given Spurs the lead after Nick Pope’s poor pass out from the back before Alexander Isak responded just before the break.

Newcastle United contested a much-criticised friendly against Tottenham in Melbourne, Australia on Wednesday morning. The likes of Kieran Trippier spoke out against Newcastle traveling so far for this game, as well as Friday’s friendly against an A-League All Stars XI. As you can imagine, England manager Gareth Southgate was not all too pleased about it either, given the close proximity to Euro 2024. While Anthony Gordon didn’t travel before being named in England’s provisional squad for this summer’s tournament in Germany, Trippier was very much in action. Clearly, friendlies – particularly b...
