Tottenham duo Odobert & Tel star in France Under-21 rout | OneFootball

Tottenham Hotspur duo Wilson Odobert and Mathys Tel were both on the scoresheet again for France, and Spurs fans will be happy to see the pair delivering the goods.

Tel has endured a torrid start to life under new Spurs boss Thomas Frank, but repaid the manager’s faith with a goal as Tottenham beat Leeds United last weekend.

The Tottenham ace bagged the opener for France’s Under-21s in the win over Estonia, calmly slotting home after an error by the goalkeeper.

After being left off the Tottenham UEFA Champions League squad list, Tel has been fighting tooth and nail to make his mark, and it is showing.

Tel had scored in the first France game of the break against the Faroe Islands.

Despite playing in his secondary position as a striker, Tel has now bagged goals in three successive games, which will excite the Spurs coaching staff.

This massive weapon is waiting in the wings, ready to be unleashed at Tottenham.

His teammate Odobert has also not been in sparkling form, but this international break was an opportunity to build some confidence.

Odobert’s first goal came on 63, and Tel played a massive role in the build-up before the former crashed in a cross.

His second was more sublime, blasting home a rocket from the front of the box.

Odobert also scored a brace versus the Faroe Islands, making it four goals in two international outings.

Odobert’s time at Tottenham has been underwhelming, but there is clearly talent back there, and it is up to Frank and his coaching team to unearth it consistently.

Both players have now offered a timely reminder of their quality and hunger.

Tel’s sharpness in front of goal and Odobert’s explosive flair make them dangerous options in any system, and their recent form should force Frank to think.

These are players who can change games. They are direct, inventive, and eager to impress.

Spurs have invested heavily in potential, and the signs are that both are ready to turn that promise into end product. It’s time to utilise them far more often.
