‘He’s devastated’: Harry Kane says Spurs player is so upset after Mura loss
Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has admitted that Spurs teammate Ryan Sessegnon is “devastated” after Thursday night’s Europa Conference League loss.
The 21-year-old full-back made only his fourth appearance of the season for Spurs in the trip to NS Mura.
However, Sessegnon lasted just over half an hour before being sent off following two bookings.
The signing from Fulham was shown his first yellow card of the game after just 11 minutes for a mistimed tackle.
And 20 minutes later, Sessegnon caught his opponent while lunging for a loose ball, resulting in his second booking and a red card.
Spurs went on to lose 2-1 in Slovenia, with Kane cancelling out Tomi Horvat’s opener and Amadej Marosa netting an injury-time winner.
Speaking after the game, Kane told : “Ryan is young and he’s not had many European games.
“It’s different, the refs are different and the atmosphere is different.
“He’s devastated. But he’s a young kid, he’ll learn from it for sure.
It’s about getting around each other and helping each other.
“He’s been working very hard and I’m sure next time he gets on the pitch he’ll do everything to help the team as much as possible.”
Fair play to Kane for standing up for his young teammate following what happened last night.
Sessegnon is a talented player whose time at Spurs has been difficult so far, but he’ll learn from his mistakes and develop into a top talent for sure.
