A late goal from Lucas Bergvall gave Tottenham the win, with the match overshadowed by a worrying injury to Rodrigo Bentancur.

But before kick-off, there was a light-hearted moment as Spurs’ kid mascots prepared to make their way onto the field.

The children were all excited to see some of football’s biggest names walk by.

And the biggest cheer appeared to be reserved for Liverpool defender Van Dijk.

The Dutchman is one of the best in the business, having won a Premier League and Champions League during his time at Anfield.

But one Tottenham mascot reckons the time is right for Van Dijk to quit Liverpool and sign for Ange Postecoglou’s side.

Indeed, the whipper-snapper didn’t hesitate to issue the offer out loud as Van Dijk high-fived him and other mascots.

And he even admitted Tottenham “haven’t got any good defenders” in amusing scenes.
