  "account": "LONDON, Aug 27 - In a thrilling debut, Savio scored his first goal for Tottenham as they defeated Charlton 5-1, securing a spot in the third round of the League Cup to face Liverpool. Manager Roberto De Zerbi had challenged the Brazilian winger to reach double figures in goals for the season. The match, played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, saw Tottenham start with a 3-0 loss to Brentford last weekend. Mikey Moore and Dominic Solanke scored two goals each in the second half, extending the lead. Substitute Kevin Danso added a third goal with his first touch, and Savio scored his second goal of the match in the 82nd minute, after it deflected off captain Ben Davies's thigh. Charlton managed a consolation goal with Lloyd Jones scoring from a corner. De Zerbi expressed optimism about Savio's potential, stating that the team needed ten or twelve goals from the wingers to compete for the 17th position in the league. The third-round tie will take place on September 7 and September 14, with all Premier League teams playing in Europe entering the competition.",
