Tottenham Hotspur's season is up and running. On Wednesday night, Roberto De Zerbi's side demolished Charlton Athletic 5-1 in North London in the Carabao Cup second round. After a nervy start, Mikey Moore and Dominic Solanke bagged quick fire goals on the cusp of half time.
After the interval, Kevin Danso, debutant Sávio and captain for the night Ben Davies were all on target in a resounding victory. However, as most Spurs fans were still on their way home from N17, the third round draw was made, handing De Zerbi's side a nightmare tie.
