Richarlison Scores Stunning Double

Richarlison scored a stunning double, including a memorable scissor-kick, to help Tottenham secure a 3-0 win over Burnley on Saturday. The Brazil international's performance earned praise from coach Thomas Frank.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Thomas Frank hailed Richarlison after the striker's double got the team off to a perfect start in north London.

Richarlison impressed as he deputised for Dominic Solanke against the Champions League winners, leading to a starting spot up front in Spurs' Premier League opener.

Richarlison's performance led to a match-winning brace in the 3-0 triumph, with his second goal on the hour mark being a contender for goal of the season.

Frank warned newly-promoted Burnley would pose a stern test, but Spurs romped to a first league win since April 6.

Brazil international Richarlison could perhaps have left this summer but remains part of the squad, and Frank is excited to get more consistency out of the 28-year-old.

Tottenham boss Frank revealed Yves Bissouma missed the fixture due to injury, while Burnley boss Scott Parker saw some real positives despite the loss.

And Richarlison's work-rate and link-up play were praised by Frank, who said the striker deserves a lot of praise for his exceptional finish.

So the focus will be on Richarlison to continue his impressive form and help Tottenham secure more wins in the Premier League.

Burnley had created a number of first-half chances but were punished for a lack of clinical edge in both boxes, according to Parker.

The clinicalness of the Premier League was the main thing to come out of the game, with Richarlison producing an outstanding finish to see the game away from Burnley.

But Frank is happy with the performance and the medical department's work in building Richarlison's fitness, and he hopes the players and fans will enjoy the win.

Richarlison's first goal was scored after 10 minutes, and his second goal was scored on the hour mark, with Brennan Johnson adding another six minutes later.

The win was a perfect start for Frank, who succeeded Ange Postecoglou as Spurs head coach in the summer and came within a whisker of winning a trophy in midweek.
