Tottenham returned to winning ways on Thursday evening, beating Hoffenheim 3-2 in the Europa League.

The 17-year-old forward made his fifth appearance in the league this season at Goodison Park where he setup his team's second goal in a 302 defeat against Everton.

A young talent with a very bright future

We're really excited to see how Moore develops at Tottenham and wouldn't be surprised to see him get a few minutes against Leicester and have a big impact on the game.
