Deeney praises Leeds defender after 1-0 win over Tottenham
Former striker Troy Deeney praised Leeds United centre-back Tarik Muharemovic for his defensive display after Leeds secured a 1-0 Premier League win over Tottenham Hotspur at Elland Road. Leeds took the lead in the 79th minute when substitute Noah Okafor scored the only goal, extending the club’s unbeaten run into the international break. Tottenham lodged a formal protest, arguing that a first-half challenge by Jayden Bogle on Mathys Tel should have resulted in a red card.
