Kick-off for the FA Cup third round tie between Tottenham and Tamworth was delayed as players attempted to fix a problem with the goal netting. Ange Postecoglou's side travelled to The Lamb Ground on Sunday with 96 league places separating them from their National League opposition.
After a hole was spotted in netting in the roof of the goal, Tamworth players leapt into action to resolve the issue. This takes you back to the cold mornings on a Sunday league pitch 😍#ITVFootball | #FACup pic.twitter.com/UikDSiVHiP. Goalkeeper Jas Singh was the first to attempt to resolve the problem, before Beck-Ray Enoru clambered onto a team-mate's shoulders to make the necessary repairs with a roll of tape.
In addition to turning out for the fifth-tier side, Enoru spends his weekdays working as a assistant at the clothing retailer Zara. With the issue sufficiently resolved and after a several-minute delay, the third-round fixture eventually got underway.
