Old Haberdasher scores for Spurs

 

On Sunday 24 March, Tottenham Hotspur held the first fixture at their new stadium in the form of an Under-18 match between Spurs and Southampton.

 

The Spurs’ youngsters easily ran out as 3-1 winners, and celebrations have since stretched as far as Elstree as ‘Old’ Haberdasher Dilan Markanday started the game and marked the occasion with a goal! In front of 28,000 spectators – including Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino – Dilan scored the third goal in the victory, and his overall performance on the day has received great reviews. Described as ‘a clever attacking midfielder’ on the Spurs website, Dilan is remembered for his mazy runs and technical ability by many of the Habs PE staff.

 

The School wishes Dilan all the very best for what promises to be a bright sporting future for this Old Boy.
