On October 27, in the 9th round of the Premier League, Tottenham lost 0-1 to Crystal Palace. After the match, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou shared his thoughts on the game.
About the Match
This was a game with many stoppages and intense physicality, but they often gained the upper hand in those confrontations and ultimately won the match. There were many chaotic situations, making it difficult to maintain smooth play. We need to be more aware of how to handle such situations rather than falling into the trap as we did today. Overall, their performance was better than ours.
About the Opponent
The opponent showed a stronger desire to win, and we should have handled it better. Instead, we made foolish mistakes, committing silly fouls and losing our pressure on the opponents. The goal we conceded was very poor, but it had nothing to do with conceding from the back. This goal was truly disappointing.
About Fans’ Dissatisfaction with the Result
I would be very surprised if the fans were happy right now. If you are saying that our fans were dissatisfied with today’s match, that is a fair assessment.
