off and really punished a struggling Leeds side. It was a performance that reminded everyone of their

from the attacking unit. What impressed you most about their approach?
Gary Lineker: The movement, Andy, the movement! They were constantly interchanging positions, creating
space, and exploiting those gaps in the Leeds defense. It was gorgeous to watch, a textbook display
of attacking football.
Now, let’s talk about Kane. Another goal for the prolific striker. He’s a machine, Gary.
Gary Lineker: What can you say? Harry Kane is world-class. He’s not just a goalscorer, he’s the fulcrum of
this Tottenham attack. He brings everyone into play,links up,and,of course,
finds the back of the net with devastating regularity.
The win catapults spurs into 7th, but the race for European places is incredibly tight. Every point
counts. How important was this victory for their ambitions?
gary Lineker: Crucial,Andy,absolutely crucial. They’ve got to keep this momentum going. A few
more wins and they’ll be right in the mix. They’ve got the quality, there’s no doubt whatsoever about it.
