Nottm Forest star Elanga sends two-word message to Tottenham ace after win

Anthony Elanga has shown his support for Lucas Bergvall after he scored the winner for Tottenham against Liverpool on Wednesday.

The Sweden international grabbed the winner in the League Cup semi-final first leg on 8 January in a controversial fashion after somehow avoiding a second yellow card.

He said: “Ma boyyyy”

Anthony Elanga sends message to Tottenham ace Lucas Bergvall

The former Djurgarden midfielder has caught the eye of many supporters with his performances, despite his young age, so far this season.

This has now been capped off with an excellently taken goal against Liverpool in a moment which could send Spurs to Wembley if all goes well at Anfield next month.

If that is to be the case, it is a moment that the Tottenham Hotspur stadium faithful and the young midfielder won’t forget any time soon.

It is also clear that it meant a lot to his friends and former teammates with Elanga one of the highest profile players to send their congratulations.

The Lilywhites don’t face Forest until April but that clash will be interesting to see how the Sweden teammates compete against each other.

It will also be a useful benchmark to see how much impact Bergvall has had in his first season as a regular in North London, sparked by an excellent strike against Liverpool in a League Cup semi-final.
