Alvaro Negredo:
The former Sevilla man fully justified his price tag with a sublime performance worthy of a praise and reference for years to come. Not only did he press the Spurs defence relentlessly, Negredo made sure he was always at the right place at the right time, a testament for his sheer passion and the willingness to succeed in an entirely different country. Moreover his goal with a wonderful turn to lose his marker and a thumping drive which sent tremors at the back of Hugo Llioris’ net was a treat to watch.
