Khumalo plays first game.

Khumalo in action for Spurs







Khumalo took part in a friendly as a
Spurs XI side brushed away Crystal Palace at Spurs Lodge as the
lilywhites ran out 4-2 winners. Ryan Mason, another promising prospect,
scored twice with the woodwork preventing his hattrick. Cameron
Lancaster also scored a brace in a side that included our new defender
Bongani Khumalo.



Four
of the goals arrived in the first 20 minutes and it took just six
minutes for Lancaster to slide home Dean Parrett's low cross for the
opener.
Palace
replied within two minutes but it was soon 2-1 as Lancaster launched
himself at Tom Carroll's deep corner and powered home his header from
close range.
Zaine
Francis-Angol set-up the third goal in the 20th minute, bursting down
the left before feeding a through ball to Mason, who beat the offside
trap and slotted into the corner.
Ryan
Fredericks, who came back from injury to make his first appearance for
the Under-18s at the weekend, was introduced as a second half substitute
and took just five minutes to make his mark.
He was upended in the box and Mason made no mistake from the penalty spot for 4-1.
Mason
was denied his hat-trick by the woodwork midway through the second half
and Mirko Ranieri produced a couple of fine saves before Palace grabbed
a late consolation.
Spurs
XI - Ranieri; Waller-Lassen (Fredericks, 46), Khumalo, Nicholson,
Francis-Angol; Parrett, Mason, Carroll, Luongo (Durojaiye, 70);
Lancaster (Pritchard, 70), Dawkins.
I
fully expect Khumalo to be in the 25 man squad this term and hopefully
the South African will be ready to make his Premier League debut by the
end of the month.
Regards.
