James Maddison hopes that his first goal of the season ‘shuts up a few people’ after completing the scoring in Tottenham’s 3-1 win over Brentford on Saturday. It was a good day for Spurs as they put last weekend’s defeat to Arsenal behind them and picked up a second victory over the campaign.

Tottenham playmaker James Maddison hopes his goal against Brentford “shuts up a few people”, but reiterated it is all about the team after Saturday’s 3-1 victory.

Tottenham earned their second Premier League win of the season as they recovered from a nightmare start to beat Brentford 3-1 in north London. The Bees took an early lead against Manchester City a week ago, and it was more of the same here as Bryan Mbeumo volleyed home brilliantly after just 22 seconds to stun the home fans.
