There was a welcome sight for Antonio Conte and all Tottenham fans on Saturday evening as Cristian Romero made his long-awaited return to the Spurs XI.
Sustaining a serious hamstring injury on Argentina international duty back in November, the 23-year-old had spent almost three months working his way back to fitness before the Tottenham head coach handed him a start in the 3-1 FA Cup win over Brighton & Hove Albion.
Romero's previous involvement in the Lilywhites XI was in the 0-0 draw away at Everton at the start of November, which in fact came at the end of Conte's first week in charge at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium following Nuno Espirito Santo's exit.
