In the 7th round of the Premier League, Tottenham, after leading 2-0, conceded three goals in 18 minutes in the second half and was eventually overturned by Brighton with a score of 3-2. After the game, Tottenham’s head coach, Postecoglou, accepted an interview with the media.
Postecoglou told Sky Sports, “Disappointed, frustrated, it’s really heartbreaking. This is the worst defeat since I’ve been here. We should have ended the game in the first half. The performance in the second half is unacceptable, far from reaching the level we should have. We were a bit too confident about our state and paid the price for it. It seems that we accepted our fate, which is hard to understand because such a thing never happened during my coaching period. We paid the price for this. The problem is that we were too smooth, whether it is football or life, if you go too fast, you will stumble.”
“There’s nothing special to say to the players, this is an extremely bad defeat for us. There is only one way to solve it, and that is my responsibility. We lost all the duels, if you are not competitive, it won’t work. Most of them will participate in national team games, they will digest it slowly on their own, I will deal with it when everyone comes back.”
