As one of the Premier League's top clubs, Tottenham Hotspur had several key players representing their nations at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Let's take a closer look at how these Spurs stars performed on football's biggest stage.

Tottenham Hotspur's World Cup Contingent

  • Ivan Perišić - Croatia's versatile winger
  • Son Heung-min - South Korea's attacking talisman

Standout Performances

Harry Kane led England's attack with his trademark clinical finishing, scoring crucial goals in the group stage. However, his missed penalty against France in the quarterfinals proved costly for the Three Lions.

Hugo Lloris captained France to their second consecutive World Cup final, making several spectacular saves throughout the tournament. His experience was invaluable for Les Bleus.

"The World Cup is always special, but representing your country while wearing the Tottenham badge makes it even more meaningful," Lloris said after the final.

Surprise Packages

Cristian Romero was a revelation for Argentina, forming a formidable partnership with Lisandro Martínez. His aggressive defending and aerial dominance helped Argentina lift the trophy.

Ivan Perišić continued to defy age with his energetic displays for Croatia, contributing goals and assists as they reached the semifinals.

Returning to Club Duty

With the World Cup concluded, these Tottenham players will now focus on helping Spurs in their Premier League campaign. Manager Antonio Conte will hope they can translate their international form to club success.

The experience gained from playing in such a high-pressure tournament should benefit Tottenham in the second half of the season, especially in crucial matches.
