Tottenham vs Everton: James Rodríguez makes Premier League record after 1-0 win
Everton attacking midfielder, James Rodríguez, on Sunday made history following his side’s 1-0 victory against Tottenham Hotspur.
Everton defeated Jose Mourinho’s side at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, thanks to a second-half goal from Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Rodríguez becomes the first Premier League debutant to create at least five chances since Alexis Sanchez for Arsenal in August 2014 after featuring in Everton’s victory against Tottenham, according to Opta Joe.
The Colombian international joined Everton from Real Madrid last week.
The 29-year-old reunited with Carlo Ancelotti, who he worked under both at Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
He will now hope to continue his impressive display for Ancelotti’s side when they host West Brom in their next fixture on September 19.
