Tottenham visited Crystal Palace for their Premier League Matchday 9 showdown.
Seventeen-year-old forward Mikey Moore, making his first-ever Premier League start, came close to breaking a longstanding club record for the London side.
Details: At just 17 years and 77 days old, Moore became the youngest player to start a Premier League match for Tottenham since Stephen Carr, who was 17 years old and 28 days in a game against Ipswich Town in September 1993.
Background: Before this start, the young striker had made three Premier League appearances for Tottenham, totaling 21 minutes on the field without any goal contributions.
