Richarlison scored for Tottenham Hotspur’s under-21s in their EFL Trophy tie at Cheltenham Town, offering a rare on-field moment for a player who has been out of favour at the club.
The 29-year-old Brazil international saw moves to Everton and Vasco da Gama fall through in the summer, and he has not been included in Spurs’ 25-man Premier League squad. His sole appearance for the club this season came in the 3-0 defeat at Brentford on the opening weekend of the Premier League season in August.
At Cheltenham, the League Two side took the lead through George Miller. Richarlison equalised with a tidy first-time finish from a right-wing cross.
Miracle Adewole then put the young Spurs side in front, only for Miller to score deep into stoppage time and send the tie to penalties.
