Crysencio Summerville admits Leeds United's defeat to Tottenham Hotspur was a hard pill to swallow. The Dutch youth international continued his impressive run in front of goal, opening the scoring for Jesse Marsch's side after just ten minutes.
The 21-year-old has now scored in his last four outings for the Whites, making his name one of the first on the teamsheet. The form of the youngster has coincided with Leeds United's recent upturn in form and at one point, it looked as though that winning run would continue against Antonio Conte's side.
Having taken the lead three times, Rodrigo Bentancur's brace in the final ten minutes of the game would ensure Spurs of all three points. Leaving the Whites in 15th place, two points above the relegation zone.

"Thanks to the fans for the support, you guys were amazing as always. And I wish @rasmusnk, @baaronson7 and @tyler.adams all the best at the World Cup."
