Tottenham Hotspur won a narrow 1-0 away victory over Brighton on the Premier League battlefield at dawn on Sunday (9), and once again the hero of the goal was their top striker, Halikani, which made it four consecutive league games in which he has scored, a new record for himself. However, Khalilani was emotional in his post-match interview, tearfully dedicating the goal to fitness coach Yunduni, who had recently passed away from acute blood cancer.
Yunduni's fitness coach passed away on Thursday (6) after being diagnosed with acute blood cancer at the end of last month. In honor of the coach, a moment of silence was held before the match, with players wearing T-shirts with the words "Always in my heart Yunduni". In the match, Tottenham continued to maintain a solid defense and fast counterattacks. In the 22nd minute, Halikani scored the only goal of the match with a header off a precise pass from Son Heung-min. After the goal, Halikani pointed to the sky, dedicating the goal to Yunduni.
After the game, Halikani was teary-eyed and choked back tears, saying, "It's been a very tough past week and thankfully we were able to win this game." Tottenham's win ended a run of four consecutive matches without a win on the road, and they are now up to third place in the league standings.
