Timothy Eyoma Gets Baptism Of Fire As He Debuts For Tottenham Hotspur U18s

Published: March 20, 2016

Anglo-Nigerian defender Timothy Eyoma made his debut for Tottenham Hotspur Under-18 team in their 7-3 rout of Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier Academy League on Saturday.

The highly-rated stopper played the full game at the Training Centre and was impressive for the Londoners, especially in the first half, until the 80th minute when he gave away a penalty after fouling Allan.

Seventy five minutes into the contest, Wolves had reduced the deficit after the England U16 international was penalized for handball and Carnat stepped up to curl home a spectacular free-kick.

Nicknamed Torpedo for his shooting ability, Timothy Eyoma joined Spurs at U12 level from nursery team Clissold Rangers.

His older brother Aaron Eyoma was on the books of the youth team of Tottenham Hotspur before shifting to Arsenal.
