00:00.
00:14...who played in the Champions League semi-final for Tottenham's rivals back in May.
00:27Tottenham's latest acquisition.
00:30Javi Simmons, the Dutch international,
00:33involved and played exceptionally well in his debut away to West Ham at the weekend.
00:40Juan Foyt, who knows all about Tottenham Hotspur after his four years here.
00:51Thomas Frank, appointed as Tottenham boss in June.
00:55He has started pretty well.
00:57He's guided Tottenham into third spot in the Premier League with three wins from their opening form actions.
01:04Tottenham and Coloreal get their 25-26 Champions League campaign underway.
01:11Tottenham in white, third in the Premier League.
01:13Tottenham and Coloreal get their 25-26 Champions League campaign underway.
01:25Tottenham in white, third in the Premier League.
01:28Both centre-backs have gone forward for Tottenham.
01:32Andrew O'Connor and Judd Spence to full-backs line a little bit deeper.
01:36It's teed up here for Simmons to have a crack.
01:38Well, a sign of his confidence, he was always rising, always likely to clear the...
01:43Worth a hit from here, and it looks like a training ground move, doesn't it?
01:47Because Javi Simmons has found space, Van der Ven with the lay-off.
01:51Simmons just unable to get...
01:57Van der Ven was in too strongly on that occasion.
02:00Jose Perez dumped on his backside.
02:15Kudos.
02:19Pedro Porro.
02:22A bunch of space ahead of him for Bergwahl, Richarlison waiting in the middle.
02:27Oh, what a disastrous error by Lewis Junior.
02:29It looked so, so simple, the Brazilian had got hold of the ball,
02:33and then it just spilt out of his grasp.
02:40Oh, it's a nightmare.
02:48On his UEFA debut for Lewis Junior.
02:54It looked so, so simple.
02:55Bergwahl, who was looking for Richarlison in the middle,
03:02found another Brazilian who got the final touch.
03:09It's one of those where, as he grabbed it and pulls it in towards his body,
03:13it ricochets off him and slides horribly over the line into the back of the net.
03:28Pedro Porro.
03:33Summons the target against Mourinho.
03:35against Mourinho.
03:58Pepe.
04:00That's one.
04:02Tries to bend it in, it's a decent effort from Pepe,
04:04just couldn't quite get the kill that was needed.
04:06Pepe.
04:07Awkward bounce for Romero.
04:08He's not got away with it.
04:09Pepe.
04:10Oh, it's a lovely ball, and they're in here for an equalizer,
04:12and Buchanan has put it wide.
04:13Mourinho.
04:14Good clearance by Van de Ven, but Pente and Coeur almost lost it.
04:15Instead, he's picked out Kudus.
04:16He's picked out Kudus.
04:17Kudus away from one.
04:19Pepe.
04:21Awkward bounce for Romero.
04:24He's not got away with it. Pepe.
04:28Oh, it's a lovely ball, and they're in here for an equaliser,
04:31and Buchanan has put it wide.
04:36Mourinho, good clearance by Van de Ven, but Bentancur almost lost it.
04:41Instead, he's picked out Kudus.
04:43Kudus away from one, support to his left in the shape of Jed Spence.
04:49Pepe Sarr, good hits, good save.
04:55And that will do the confidence of Lewis Jr.
04:59Here's that effort from Pepe Sarr earlier.
05:02Low and hard and on target, it's a good stretch from Lewis Jr.
05:06We might not have seen it until fairly late on as it came through.
05:11It was on target and it was travelling.
05:19.
05:25Bentancur caught in possession by Eosie Perez, it's gay.
05:29.
05:33Splendid tackle by Romero, and then Bergwald almost got in his way.
05:37.
05:47.
05:49.
05:51.
05:53.
05:55.
05:57.
05:59.
06:00.
06:01.
06:02.
06:03Kudus will leave it for Pedro Porro.
06:13Porro will cross.
06:16A drop here for Simmonds.
06:18The back heel for Spence, on for Issharlison.
06:21And the deflection takes it into the side netting from Foyt.
06:29And there goes the whistle for half-time.
06:33That's a horrible error by Lewis Junior.
06:38So back underway, Valerial in that famous all-yellow strip.
06:43The change to yellow, by the way, was...
06:56Pepe.
06:57Oh, and again, just tries that little curler into the far corner.
07:05It's given away cheaply by Tottenham in the middle of the pitch.
07:09Gay feeding it on to Pepe, and this is where he is so dangerous, of course.
07:12Tottenham fans would hate it if the former Arsenal man...
07:24Akumak and Pepe, the two over it.
07:27It will be Pepe!
07:28And he's wide again.
07:33That was the big opportunity that Villarreal were hoping for.
07:37It's not that far wide, is it?
07:39It's just nice.
07:51Champions League winners of last season found an equaliser, but Villarreal won't do so here tonight.
07:56Because that is safely through to the hands of Vicario as the referee blows for time.
08:03A winning start for Thomas Frank and Tottenham in there.
08:05And Tottenham in there.
