Tottenham U21 skipper George Abbott is beaming with pride after leading his team to victory as Premier League 2 champions. The Spurs emerged victorious in the national final against Sunderland over the weekend.
“It’s absolutely incredible – we’ve been working towards this moment all season long. We’ve maintained consistency, won crucial matches, and now we’ve proven that we have what it takes to win titles,” said the 18-year-old Abbott in an interview with the club’s official website.
“We didn’t settle for just being at the top of the league; we wanted to carry that momentum into the playoffs and achieve the same result. I believe it really worked in our favor, having our fans behind us, supporting us throughout. Their unwavering support has been phenomenal, especially those who showed up at Stevenage and other away games. We truly appreciate their dedication,” Abbott added.
Reflecting on their triumph against Sunderland, Abbott acknowledged the strength of their opponents. “Sunderland is a formidable side. We’ve faced them four times now, and each encounter has been a challenge. However, Will’s second goal was crucial in solidifying our lead, allowing us to see the match through. Personally, it was an indescribable feeling to score as well. I don’t find the net often, so when I do, it brings immense joy. And doing it in front of our incredible fans made it even more special!”
