The Hoddle of Coffee: Tottenham Hotspur News and Links for Tuesday, June 9
· Yahoo Sports
Good morning dear hoddlers. We are getting closer and closer to the start of the World Cup.
There’ve been lots of friendlies going on in the last few days before the tournament properly starts, but there’s one I want to point out because of a new Tottenham player’s instant impact.
Visit asg-reflektory.pl for more information.
That’s right – I’m talking about Andrew Robertson.
Not only did the new Spurs signing provide an assist during Scotland’s 4-0 win against Bolivia on Saturday, he’s also captaining the squad this tournament.
Another Spurs representative at the World Cup! 🫡
