The newspaper gave an eight, out of ten, in grade to the former Djurgården midfielder who is doing his first season in Tottenham and meant that he was secure in positional play and accurate in ball distribution. Even The Standard gave Bergvall an eight in grade.

"Made a stable effort on central midfield in his first Premier League match. Involved in the play that led to the first goal and will get better after this experience."

According to Tottenham's statistics, the 18-year-old successfully passed 25 out of 26 times in the first half and reached the target with two out of two long balls.

It was the first time Bergvall was in the starting eleven.

It felt very good. It has been a dream since I was little, to get to start in the Premier League, so I'm grateful for that, he said in the interview after the match.

There is a big difference for me compared to Allsvenskan. I learn every day and try to train on and get better every day, get better self-confidence and improve my physique. I learn from the best.

Tottenham's coach Ange Postecoglou also got questions about Bergvall and Djed Spence who made their starting debut in the Premier League for the club.

They were very good. Lucas is growing all the time and he's only 18, says Postecoglou according to Evening Standard.
