Tottenham first half player ratings vs Sevilla: Romero, Dier and Lucas impress, Hojbjerg off-key

Tottenham's pre-season tour of South Korea is brought to you in association with Nord VPN, sponsors of football.london's coverage.

Hugo Lloris

Made a good save to deny Papu Gomez before the hour mark. Didn't have too much else to do. 7

Cristian Romero

Plenty of excellent touches and the Argentine was, as he often is, calmness personified out there. 8

Eric Dier

Dealt with much of what came his way in the first half and made an important tackle to deny Mir as he ran through clear on goal. 8

Davinson Sanchez

A real contrast to Romero's calm as he mixed shaky moments with a good couple of interceptions. 6

Lucas Moura

Playing at right wing-back, he showed a good link-up with his fellow Brazilian Richarlison and made a good defensive header from a cross 17 minutes in. Did well in his makeshift role. 8

Oliver Skipp

Put himself about in the centre of the pitch in an all action role as he spread the ball out well to Sessegnon repeatedly as the left of the two central midfielders. 7

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

Worked away but made a few loose passes, including one that put Mir through only for Dier to bail out the Dane and another late in the half. 5

Ryan Sessegnon

Couldn't quite get on the end of Richarlison's teasing curling cross and fired in a good cross himself to Son, who headed at the goalkeeper. 6

Richarlison

Took plenty of whacks in the first half and put in a curling ball to the back post that was just too strong for Sessegnon. 6

Harry Kane

Had the ball in the net with a drive from distance but he was offside. Showed a few nice touches but couldn't find a way through. 6

Son Heung-min

Sent a header at the keeper from Sessegnon's cross. Had a few strong runs but didn't get too much service. 6
