Kulusevski Makes Longest Appearance Since Injury Return as Tottenham Lose to Leeds

After being ready to return to the national team earlier in the week, Dejan Kulusevski made his longest appearance since returning from a long-term injury on Saturday. But his week ended on a low note as Tottenham lost 1-0 away to Leeds in the Premier League.

Kulusevski came on in the 65th minute, giving him almost half an hour on the pitch, including added time.

It was by far his longest appearance since the Swedish star returned earlier this autumn after an absence of almost 1.5 years following a serious knee injury.

With Kulusevski back, Tottenham had won three consecutive league games, but the run ended away to Leeds, where Gabriel Gudmundsson started but was substituted at half-time.

Noah Okafor had barely come on before scoring the only goal of the match at Elland Road in the 79th minute.
