Tottenham star Lucas Moura was involved in an incident with a ball boy during his side’s 3-2 victory over Bournemouth.
Kieffer Moore’s brace put Spurs down 2-0 at the Vitality Stadium. However, goals from Sessegnon, Ben Davies, and a stoppage time winner by Bentancur completed Conte’s team’s successful comeback.
Lucas Moura came on at half-time to help his team turn the game around. At 2-2 and with Spurs running against time for a winner, he raced off to collect the ball for a throw-in but the Bournemouth ball boy tried to take his time to give the ball back.
This is when, as reported by BBC Sport, Lucas Moura angrily wrestled the ball away from the him leaving the young boy ‘visibly upset’. The ball boy was soon after kicked out by the stewards.

Spurs had not won in four games, having lost in the Premier League to Manchester United and Newcastle and drawing 1-1 in Europe with Sporting Lisbon. Tonight’s victory should provide a significant boost in their efforts to regain momentum.
