Tottenham training match vs Norwich: Scoreline, players return, second friendly cancelled

Tottenham Hotspur will be in action when the Premier League returns next weekend after a three-month break.

Clubs have not played a competitive game since the beginning of March because of the coronavirus pandemic.

But the Premier League will return in a few days with Arsenal, Manchester City, Sheffield United and Aston Villa all playing their game in hand.

Ahead of the return of clubs have been allowed to organise friendly matches, to get back up to speed.

Those friendlies must be played no more than 90 minutes away, however, with players expected to get there themselves.

Spurs have been in action today in the first of two scheduled warm-up games which was intended to give Jose Mourinho the chance to hand players some much-needed match fitness and sharpness

The competition for the Lilywhites today was fellow top-flight opposition in Norwich City, while tomorrow they were supposed to take on Championship side Reading.

However, the latter is no longer going ahead.

Details of the game have been confirmed.

Spurs had taken the lead thanks to Erik Lamela, but Josip Drmic and Mario Vrancic turned the game on its head.

Tottenham finished the match with a near youth team out on the pitch, but Harry Kane, Moussa Sissoko, Heung-Min Son and Steven Bergwijn were all back in action.
