Women’s Under-19s set for London Bees clash - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Our Women’s Under-19s will face London Bees in the quarter-final of the Capital Women’s Cup.

Progressing to the final eight of the competition for a second year in a row, the tie will take place on Thursday 2 April at Cheshunt Football Club, with kick-off at 7.45pm.

Tasked with facing Dulwich Hamlet at the previous stage, our youngster put in an impressive performance against the senior side to secure a 2-1 victory at Champion Hill after an own goal before a stunner from Grace Bellwood.

It will be another tough test for Sabiha Jamal’s side as The Bees are currently competing in the FA Women’s National League Division One South East – the fourth tier of Women’s football - and sat third in the table.

Supporters will be allowed to attend the game at Cheshunt and show their support for the next generation of talent at the Club.

Full ticketing details will be announced in due course.

Due to our involvement in the cup clash, our Professional Game Academy League fixture at home to Crystal Palace, which was scheduled for Wednesday 1 April, will now take place on Wednesday 6 May.

Under-18s boss Jamie relishing top-of-the-table clash - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

It’s first-v-second in the Under-18 Premier League on Tuesday evening when our youngsters host Chelsea at Hotspur Way (5pm UK, live on SPURSPLAY).

After jumping above the Blues into pole position a few weeks ago, our Under-18s have opened up a four-point gap at the top and are enjoying a nine-game unbeaten league run, but our London rivals still have two games in hand and returned to form with a 3-0 win at Brighton on Saturday, having lost three of their previous four.

With that in mind, Tuesday’s match looks set to be a key contest in the title race, with coach Jamie Carr looking forward to seeing how his players perform under a degree of additional pressure.

“As an Academy, you want the occasions where the players have to step up and find themselves in a bit of a different situation to a normal game,” he said.

“I think that’s what’s going to come against Chelsea. We’ll be playing an evening fixture, there’s plenty on the line for the boys and we’ll get to see them up against a good side.”

Supporters can watch the game live on SPURSPLAY – tune in just before kick-off at 5pm to enjoy all the action as it happens.

Live text updates will also be available on our Match Centre here on tottenhamhotspur.com and the Spurs Official app, with a match report available to read afterwards on the same platforms.

Leeds United 1-0 Spurs (Premier League 2) - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Our Under-21s fell to a narrow 1-0 defeat to Leeds United in the Premier League 2 on Monday night.

Travelling to the LNER Community Stadium, Rhys Chadwick scored the only goal of a tight game in York, flicking the ball home with 15 minutes left to play.

On a night of few chances, we had a glorious opportunity to take a point from the game when James Wilson had the goal at his mercy with two minutes remaining, but the forward blazed over from close range as Leeds claimed all three points.

After the final whistle, a coming together between the players saw the hosts have a man sent-off with substitute Kenneth Mensah shown a red card.

On a very chilly night in West Yorkshire, the game well-matched with both sides well organised, structured and solid in their defences, stifling any attempt either team made to progress up the pitch

It led to a rather slow first half and that showed as there had been almost 25 minutes played before the first shot was produced. In saying that, it was a chance that we would later look back on as golden with Ellis Lehane only thwarted by some incredible reactions from Robert Cook in the Leeds goal.

That turned out to be the best chance of the opening 45 minutes. Leeds did have a couple of half chances as Carey Bloedorn had to twice be aware to efforts from Chadwick and then Edward Ibrovic-Fletcher, but neither attempt really troubled our man between the sticks.

The second half began in a similar vein to the first. It took until 57 minutes for the first real chance to be created as Rio Kyerematen stung the palms of Cook with a fierce drive from just inside the area. However, from that moment, it was our hosts who started to enjoy the better moments with the ball, and came very close to breaking the deadlock 12 minutes later as Oliver Pickles fired just wide of the upright from range.

It was a half chance at best, but it showed the room Leeds were starting to find space in the middle of the park, and it was from that area that they grabbed their winner. Substitute Callum Mills sparked it, driving into a central area, playing the ball out to Alfie Cresswell and then onto Jayden Lienou on the wing who produced the dangerous delivery into the box for Chadwick to turn home.

That was Leeds' first - and ultimately only - clear-cut opportunity of the game and we were made to pay for it, especially after Cook's save to deny Lehane in the first half. Before the final whistle blew, we were to have one more golden chance to take a point - a gilt-edged chance. After Cook could only parry Armend Muslika's low effort into the path of Wilson, it looked like a certainty that the striker would find the back of the net however, from just a matter of yards out, he sent the ball over bar.

Leaving York empty handed, there was drama after the final whistle as Mensah was shown a red card following a coming together between the two sets of players.

Toby Alderweireld back in N17 for Atleti tie

Toby Alderweireld back in N17 for Atleti tie - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Toby Alderweireld is back at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as our special guest for our UEFA Champions League Round of 16 second leg against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday evening.

Supporters will hear from Toby ahead of the 8pm kick-off at 7.45pm when he will reminisce about some fantastic Spurs memories over six years with Paul Coyte.

One of our best defenders of the modern era, Toby was snapped up from Atletico Madrid in July, 2015, and formed a formidable central partnership with fellow Belgian Jan Vertonghen, the pair providing the backbone of our Champions League qualification in 2015/16 and our best defensive record in a Premier League campaign (26 goals conceded) on our way to second place in 2016/17.

Toby started both legs of the quarter-final, semi-final and then the final in our Champions League run of 2018/19. He went on to make 236 appearances in his six years at Spurs before starting a new chapter at Al-Duhail SC in Qatar.

And there was a footballing fairytale to follow. Signing for his home city club Royal Antwerp in 2022, Toby won the Belgian Cup in April 2023 and then, at the end of his first season, scored a 94th-minute equaliser to secure the club's first title for 66 years. The team then reached the group stage of the UEFA Champions League for the first time the following season, 2023/24.

After winning 127 caps - in the top five all-time caps for De Rode Duivels, a list topped by Jan's 157 - and appearing in three World Cups, winning bronze in 2018, Toby announced his international retirement in 2023. At the end of last season, 2024/25, after 635 career appearances for Ajax, Southampton, Atletico Madrid, Al-Duhail and Royal Antwerp, Toby announced his retirement.

Speaking to us on his departure back in 2021, Toby reflected on his time in Lilywhite. “We conceded 26 goals in 2016/17, the best in the Club’s history, so maybe when I finish my career, I’ll look back at that as a very special time,” he reflected. “I was part of it as we wrote our names in Club history, great days.

“I’ve only good memories. There are not a lot of players who stay at a club for six years now. I’m always very loyal, always happy to play. I never talk about myself, but maybe now is the moment... I always did my best, and I hope people see that every time I stepped onto the pitch, I gave 100 per cent for the shirt.

“I always wanted to be part of the Club’s history and the Club will be with me forever.”

Julie Blakstad: “We need to learn from this game”

Julie Blakstad: “We need to learn from this game” - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Julie Blakstad admitted that there was plenty of learnings after our 2-1 defeat to Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.

Returning to N17 after the international break, hosting the Toffees in our first meeting at our famous home, we suffered an early setback when Yuka Momiki fired low into the bottom corner to hand the visitors the lead.

While we enjoyed plenty of possession, we struggled to break down a stubborn Everton backline, registering only one shot on target before Signe Gaupset, from petty much nothing, got us back on level terms with 14 minutes left to play in north London.

Having found that all-important equaliser, it felt the impetus would be in our favour, however, on 83 minutes, substitute Kelly Gago produced a huge blow as she converted from close range and ensured the Merseyside club left the capital with three points.

Obviously feeling disappointed after the game, winter arrival Julie says ‘we were not good enough’ on the day but insisted that the group need to bounce back from the result.

“It's a tough game for us, losing here, that's not a result we want,” our number 41 told us, reflecting on the performance after the game. “But, at the same time, I think we were not good enough. We gave them a lot of opportunities to go in behind and on the transitional play, which we looked at before the game. So, we need to look back at this game and be better for the next time.

“It's always hard to come back from international, but it's the same for every team. I'm sure they also have a lot of players travelling, so I think that we need to do that better and come back and, as you say, not give them the first half away. In the second half, we start off very good and get some momentum, get it to 1-1, and then conceding the second goal there is a tough one.

“We have three really tough games to bounce back. But, at the same time, I think we need to learn from this game because what we performed today was not good enough and we want to do better for ourselves and for the fans that come and support us every game.”

Asked about playing in front of our Lilywhite fanbase at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, she added: “It's always incredible to play in front of them as they give so much support and help, so I'm really sorry that we couldn't give more. But we'll bounce back and give more next week.”

Richarlison your Player of the Match against Liverpool

Richarlison your Player of the Match against Liverpool - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Richarlison has claimed your HSBC Player of the Match after striking late to salvage a point at Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

Making his first league start since returning from a hamstring injury in mid-February, our number nine's 90th-minute equaliser was richly deserved for a tireless performance in our 1-1 draw at Anfield.

The Brazil international had an ongoing battle with compatriot Alisson in the Liverpool goal, who denied him three times with big saves until the 90th minute, when Richy swept home Randal Kolo Muani's squared pass to cancel out Dominik Szoboszlai’s first-half free-kick.

Watch - Richy to the rescue at Anfield

The former Everton player relishes this fixture and has been involved in more league goals against Liverpool than any other opponent (nine - six goals, three assists), including six in six games in our colours (four goals, two assists).

His ninth Premier League goal of the campaign also took him onto 100 goal involvements in the English top flight (73 goals, 27 assists currently) and is just the third Brazilian to reach that milestone after Roberto Firmino (132) and Gabriel Jesus (118).

Donley named in Northern Ireland’s World Cup play-off squad - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Jamie Donley has been included in Northern Ireland’s squad for their 2026 FIFA World Cup play-off campaign at the end of this month.

The attacking midfielder, currently on loan at Oxford United, is one of 28 players called upon by boss Michael O’Neill for their semi-final clash with Italy in Bergamo on 26 March, followed by a potential play-off final against either Wales or Bosnia-Herzegovina on 31 March for a place at this summer’s World Cup finals.

The 21-year-old, who represented both England and Northern Ireland at youth level, made his senior debut for the latter nation in March last year and currently has six senior caps to his name. On his most recent international appearance back in November, he scored the winner in a World Cup qualifier against Luxembourg.
