# Auckland 0-2 Tottenham
Tottenham secured a comfortable victory over Auckland in this friendly match, with two well-taken goals deciding the contest. Dominic Scarlett opened the scoring in the twelfth minute, setting the tone early, before Richarlison added a second in the seventieth minute to seal the win. The English side's clinical finishing proved the difference on the night, as they controlled proceedings throughout the encounter.
The result proved somewhat surprising given the pre-match model predictions, which had actually favored Auckland with a forty percent chance of victory compared to Tottenham's thirty-three percent. However, Spurs demonstrated superior quality and execution to overturn the odds and claim a convincing away victory in what was a one-sided affair. Their ability to convert chances and maintain control ensured there was never any real threat of a comeback from their New Zealand opponents.
