Tottenham Hotspur winger Manor Solomon played a key role in Israel winning their latest European Championships qualifier.
A 93rd-minute goal from Gavriel Kanichowsky earned Israel a win that sees them their qualification hopes alive.
According to statistics provided by SofaScore, Manor Solomon was at his most devastating in the final third.
Tottenham fans have only seen Solomon on the pitch for a short amount of time so far this season.
The 24-year-old was on loan at Premier League rivals Fulham last season and scored a flurry of goals after coming back from a serious injury.
With his contract at Shakhtar set to end in the winter and FIFA allowing him to move for free this summer, Tottenham snapped up the chance to sign the Israeli.
He started the season as a back-up to Ange Postecoglou’s chosen front three before breaking into the team against Burnley.
The winger most definitely seized the chance, contributing two assists and making life difficult for Vincent Kompany’s squad.
Solomon continued to play on the left wing in his most recent appearance for Israel while maintaining his Spurs form.
He will now be trying to go back to Spurs and keep Richarlison’s spot in the club.
Solomon, a Tottenham player, performs well for Israel
Last night, Solomon was a creative force, making six crucial passes for his teammates, but they were unable in converting them.
He was the target of many of Israel’s attacks and was able to take 63 touches.
For reference, in his brilliant performance against Burnley, he only took 37 touches, showing his importance to his national team.
Solomon struggled with his end product, failing to take a shot on target and missing his one big chance.
Due to his size, he isn’t the strongest player either; he’s turned the ball over 20 times and has only won two of his seven duels.
Solomon is not a member of the Israel or Tottenham teams for the reasons mentioned above.
He has been dubbed a bright spark at Spurs and will look to build on his promising start to the season this weekend when he faces Sheffield United.
