da brdice: Tottenham Hotspur academy product Anthony Georgiou made his senior debut for Cyprus in their international friendly against Montenegro on Friday night.
da betway: Georgiou has been called into the Cyprus squad for the first time, and was thrust into the starting XI for what proved to be a goalless draw.
The 21-year-old came through the youth system at Spurs, and is yet to make a Premier League appearance for the London club.

That said, the Georgiou made his professional debut for Tottenham in their 3-0 win over Cypriot champions APOEL in the Champions League back in September.
Georgiou mainly operates as a left winger, but one Tottenham fan has claimed that the Cypriot should be given the chance to take Danny Rose’s place in the squad as a left-back.
Indeed, after making his international bow, a selection of the Spurs supporters, who have recently revealed their dream signings for the club, called on head coach Mauricio Pochettino to hand the 21-year-old some more first-team minutes between now and the end of the season.
