Well-deserved: Spurs star named in WhoScored Premier League Team of the Week with 7.74 rating.
After helping his team to a 3-1 win against Crystal Palace this weekend, Cristian Romero has been named in the WhoScored team of the week for the Premier League.
Tottenham had to come from behind to get all three points in their latest game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with Crystal Palace taking the lead in the second half through an Eberechi Eze free-kick.
Spurs hit back with the equaliser coming from Timo Werner, who scored his first goal for the club. And then, just three minutes later, Cristian Romero headed home to give the Lilywhites the lead, before Heung-min Son completed the scoring.
The goal for Romero, which came from a glorious ball into the box by James Maddison, truly changed the game.
However, it is Romero’s display at the back which also caught the eye, with the centre-half typically solid, reading the game well, and helping transition the flow of play from defene to attack with passes breaking through the lines.
