‘Oh wow’ – Fans react after Richarlison scores a ‘goal of the season contender’ with a superb scissor kick with Tottenham beating Burnley.
Spurs took just 10 minutes to find the opener, Mohammed Kudus made his way down the right-hand side, got away from his marker, sent a cross into the box and a there with lovely finish was Richarlison.
Richarlison got his and Spurs’ second from 10-yards out on 60 minutes after Mohammed Kudus placed the ball to him from the right.
Brennan Johnson then made it 3-0 on 66 minutes, Richarlison held the ball up against Hjalmar Ekdal and the ball was picked up by Pape Matar Sarr who found Brennan Johnson and a neat finish placed into the bottom corner.

What an unbelievable strike to all those fans that said he must be sold 🤫 you’ve been silenced #EPL #COYS 🤍💙 pic.twitter.com/JjPYpSbd09— Jonny H (@JonnyH3232) August 16, 2025
Thomas Frank on the win: “Perfect start or dream start we all know we need to follow up on it. Today I will just enjoy it and I hope the players, the club and the fans enjoy it because that is important.”
On Richarlison: “Fantastic he is scoring. The first one is definitely easier to score without being easy, but I have a striker that takes those two chances and helps us win the game.
“He deserves a lot of praise. He was very good against PSG and today he was exceptional, with his work-rate, driving the team, link-up play, hold-up play, just dominating and then the two finishes.
“So happy on his behalf and again performance department, medical department did a top job to build him. I think a few of you know he was not involved in the first friendly because we had to build him. That will be continuous and something we need to look at throughout the season.”
On how his young midfield fared today: “I’m very happy. Pape I have praised so much, so I will not say so much about him today.
“I will give the praise a little bit to others. Archie Gray did well, I think. Fine first half, really grew into it in the second half and as a reminder to myself and everyone else young players take a little bit of time.
“It can’t be we put them out there and suddenly they are exceptional. That demands incredible, incredible, incredible talents. Normal, very, very good talents, which I think Archie is and Bergvall is, that demands some time, so happy with his performance. Lucas overall was very good as well. Top actions from both players.”
“I’m extremely happy for the win”

🗣️ “Having a 1v1 is what I crave for as a winger… I’m happy about the beginning, but it’s a long long marathon to go.”

‘Oh wow’ – Fans react after Richarlison scores a ‘goal of the season contender’ with an exquisite scissor kick…
@GeorgeKlumpp: I just busted all over my ceiling
@repeatspurs: A productive Richy is massive for Spurs. He is a quality many of us have yet to understand @ Tottenham
@geoc1878: Hope this is a sign Richy is getting back to his best. 🚀
@dtaylor_efc: Some goal that
@BlueArenaNmore: Absolute spectacular overhead strike. Going to be a great season for him if he is able to keep himself fit through the campaign.
@KevinRandhawa: The Super Cup and this game so far has shown that when fit, Richarlison can be the £60m player Spurs paid for, offers a different profile than Solanke. The key thing is staying healthy which tbf most players unfortunately struggled with under Ange. Hope he can maintain this play
@thesamuelarmy: Kudus you beauty. Richarlison you legend. Spurs are so back. Extremely ready to be hurt again.
@SamTHFC_Dorrell: I know it’s only the first game of the season blah blah blah. But Archie Gray & Bergvall were moving like prime Busquets & Iniesta today. Sarr might be the best footballer of all time & if we can get that Richarlison for a season then we’re onto a winner. Up the Spurs #THFC #COYS
@TheRobVera: For allegedly being totally washed up, Richarlison seems to be starting the season well. #EFC
@SouthStandSpurs: Absolutely buzzing for Richarlison. Works so hard on the pitch. I wish he could stay fit. Kudus is what happens when you go out and sign proven quality prem players. Good start!!
