Spurs suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Bundesliga giants Bayern away from home at the Allianz Arena in Germany in Champions League Group B.
Sessegnon, who can operate as a left-back or as a left-winger, started the match and scored in the 20th minute.
It was the former Fulham star’s debut in the Champions League, and the 19-year-old has taken to Twitter to revel in his achievement.
The England Under-21 international has also expressed his disappointment at his side’s failure to win against Bayern.
A fantastic feeling for me to get my 1st start and goal for @spursofficial tonight but ultimately disappointed we didnt get the win. Tough game but weve got to pick ourselves up and go again at the weekend #COYS
