The midfielder’s absence was felt by Spurs in the first half at the Vitality Stadium, with the Lilywhites struggling to move the ball quickly and break down the Bournemouth defence.
The Uruguayan changed the game when he was introduced just before the hour mark as Tottenham produced a sensational comeback to come from two goals down to win 3-2.
It was Bentancur himself who scored the match-winner in stoppage time as he calmly guided the ball into the roof of the net when it fell to his feet after his initial header was blocked.
It was the 24-year-old’s second goal in a matter of days after he netted Tottenham’s equaliser in their 1-1 draw against Sporting Lisbon last week.
Bentancur is not a player who is known for his goalscoring progress, which is why Suarez was quite surprised to know that his compatriot had found the back of the net again.
When the Tottenham man took to Instagram after netting the match-winner, the former Barcelona star responded: “Crazy thing! Two goals in a row? Congrats Rodri!”
Spurs Web Opinion
Bentancur has shown over recent weeks that he can offer a lot going forward if he is given the freedom to do so. The 24-year-old is getting better and better as he gets accustomed to the Premier League. It looks like we might potentially have a world-class player on our hands.
