Goals from academy products Dane Scarlett, Damola Ajeyi and Mikey Moore helped Spurs beat their Swedish opposition 3-0 on Thursday (30.01.25) to seal progression to the last 16 of the tournament and the coach stated that the win was "made in Tottenham".

Postecoglou said: "Yeah, I've just said it's 'made in Tottenham' tonight. Brilliant for the club. I'm sure there's academy coaches and players who won't sleep tonight, [and are] pretty excited.

"We've obviously got a big week coming up and we've got to try and manage a load of our players and try and protect them and we kind of knew we'd have to rely on some young players tonight. We have all the way through to be honest, this campaign, and I thought they stood up really well.

"The whole group played well but obviously like I said, we were going to need some young boys to make an impact and not just the three goal scorers. We still had a couple of 18-year-olds in there as well who continue to drive us on. So it is a great night for the club and something that the whole academy should be proud of."

Spurs have been forced to rely on youth amid an injury crisis but Postecoglou thinks that the night will be a "boost" for the club as it gives hope to other young players.

The manager said: "I don't know of many teams that are finishing European games like us with five or six teenagers on the field. It's a challenge for us, but credit to the lads, they're just cracking on with it.

"The young boys are taking their opportunity and as I said, that'll all bear fruit in time for sure. This exposure we've given them, the growth they've had, the impact they've made.

"I'm sure they'll all kind of be encouraged and I think the rest of the academy will too, the young players in there, because they're seeing the guys who they've been sharing a dressing room with out there scoring for Tottenham on a European night. I'm sure it's going to give a boost to the whole place."
