Radrizzani's Tottenham chief talks, Harry Kane's nasty shove and Leeds United moments missed

Radrizzani pitchside

Leeds United’s chairman Andrea Radrizzani was pitchside once again for a Whites game. Before the match, the Italian was seen chatting with his compatriot, and Tottenham Hotspur managing director, Fabio Paratici.

Cooper’s mascot solidarity

United’s mascot lined up as usual with club captain Liam Cooper in the tunnel at Tottenham. However, on this occasion, the child was wearing ear defenders. In a classy touch of solidarity, Cooper was also brandishing the same headwear as the youngster when they walked out side by side.

Kane’s far from sweetness and light

The England captain is held up as the model professional, but one look at his behaviour in the penalty box before a home corner makes you think. Nobody’s going to sit here and tell you corners should not be contested and referees spot everything, but the strength of his shove into Tyler Adams’s chest before the ball was even delivered was quite the eye-opener.

Ayling gets involved from the sidelines

Luke Ayling was looking to influence the game while he was on the substitutes’ bench. In the 53rd minute, while he was warming up, Ayling couldn’t resist having a nibble with referee Michael Salisbury.

Leeds had been awarded a free-kick after a foul on Brenden Aaronson wide on the left of the field. As Salisbury came over to mark the pitch, Ayling ensured he had a word with the man in the middle.

Marsch lauds Summerville’s intensity

In the 63rd minute, Crysencio Summerville pressed, harried and got stuck into Davinson Sanchez near the touchline by the technical areas. Jesse Marsch loved the intensity Summerville had showed in going in attacking the ball.

The head coach would pump his arms and then clap Summerville’s hand as he came away from forcing a throw-in.

Marsch is flat on his back once again

The Leeds head coach is making a habit of being on his back in Premier League technical areas. Since the joy of Brentford in May there was the slip at Molineux on Wednesday, then Saturday at Tottenham left him floored once more.

It wasn’t even the Spurs winner which had the American losing his fight with gravity. As the hosts pulled level at 3-3, the only way Marsch could react was by going to ground, levelled by the pain of such a swift home reply.
