Gary Neville mesmerized by “incredible” Pedro Porro

Tottenham took the lead in their Premier League season opener against Leicester City thanks to a goal from Pedro Porro, with the defender’s performance in the opening 45 minutes providing a mesmerising experience for Sky Sports’ Gary Neville.

The 24-year-old is allowed to play high up the pitch from his role as right back, which has caused Leicester a lot of problems.

This was often seen from the defender last season, but Neville said at half-time that he was mesmerised by the positions Porro took up and was very impressed by the run the defender made on his way to his goal, calling the Spaniard’s actions “unbelievable”.
