Tottenham made a winning start to their pre-season programme on Wednesday as they edged MK Dons behind closed doors at the club’s Hotspur Way training ground. The match was sure to pose an interesting opposition for Spurs, given the Dons were promoted last season and were already two matches into their own pre-season preparations, but it took less than three minutes for the hosts to open the scoring. A corner fell to new signing Mateus Fernandes and he lashed it in off the post from the edge of the area to make an emphatic start to his own career with the club.
