Video: Tottenham fans will love what Pedro Porro did to Mikel Arteta in North London Derby win
Pedro Porro was involved in a small altercation with Mikel Arteta during Tottenham’s 1-0 win over Arsenal on Thursday, and Spurs fans will love what the full-back did.
As one would have expected, the game was played at a much higher intensity than what one normally sees in a friendly, being the first North London derby outside UK soil.
The Lilywhites managed to keep a clean sheet and emerge 1-0 winners thanks to Pape Sarr’s outstanding lob from close to the halfway line in the first half.
There was another charged moment in the second half, which caught many Spurs fans’ eyes as it showed the bad blood between the two sides.

The moment occurred in the 59th minute just as Pedro Porro was shaping up to take a throw-in.
Mikel Arteta came outside his technical area, blocking the Tottenham man’s path, while trying to organise his players.
Rather than politely waiting for Arteta to be done and go back into his area, Porro decided to push the Arsenal manager back and pointed to where he should be, with the Gunners boss not taking too kindly to the treatment.
Thomas Frank was delighted with one Spurs star’s performance
There was a lot to like about Spurs’ performance in Hong Kong, not least their defensive organisation, which restricted their rivals to just one shot on target through the whole game.
However, it was an attacking player that the Tottenham head coach singled out for praise in his post-match press conference.
Frank was over the moon with Mohammed Kudus’ performance against Arsenal, and predicted that the new signing will give Spurs fans a lot of exciting moments in the years to come.
