Ange Postecoglou reiterated that the players were giving everything, since the wolves denied the praise for their efforts with an ejected accused in the shock of the Premier League on Sunday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The visitors scored early through Hee-chan Hwang (seven minutes), however, we turned the tide at halftime thanks to Rodrigo Bentancur’s header from a corner by Pedro Porro (12 minutes) and clinic completing from Brennan Johnson after a pullback by Dejan Kulusevski in extra time, his eleventh purpose of the season.
There were opportunities for us at the time as we worked into positions to drop into the final action and we paid off when Jorgen Strand Larsen hit the equalizer from an acute angle with 3 minutes remaining.
There was a further injury blow as well as Destiny Udogie was forced off holding the back of his right leg five minutes into the second half.
Speaking on our Review Show, Ange talks about the giveaway. . .
Ange: “Yes, it’s difficult to accept, I’m disappointed with the result. We scored a goal, but after that, I thought we were in control of the game. We scored our goals, we had wonderful chances to get the third, only to kill the game. You know, when you don’t, it’s 2-1 and the game is still on the line. They didn’t create much, Fraser had to back it up, but there’s that possibility. . . and we leave. disappointed with the result. It is not out of preference to check it. The players give everything and it’s fair to say that they immerse themselves in each and every one of the powers they have to check to get us a result and, from my point of view, that’s important. “.
It’s a shame we couldn’t hold on because a victory would have been a great relief for everyone. . .
Ange: “Yes, particularly the players, they deserve a reward today for their efforts. As I said, we’re relying on a small group of players to carry us through. They’re working their socks off. I wanted them to get a reward for their efforts and when they don’t, it obviously works.”
Destiny as an injury to the Corva’s tendon, any novelty?
Ange: “Yes, it’s a hamstring injury, again, we’re relying on very few (players) and it was always a risk that someone could get a further injury when you’re not able to rest them. Unfortunately, Destiny is the one who paid the price today.”
Is there a chance the likes of Mikey Moore and Richarlison could feature soon?
Angel: “Richy, we hope. Mikey is a bit absent. We will have to wait and see in the next few days. “
Does the message want you to know what this effort are making?
Angel: “You can’t refuse this. We are all disappointed, but I cannot deny that this is an organization of players who give everything to see to turn our fortunes around. This will have to be identified and as a manager, I don’t reject it at all. “
There is a window this week (our next match will be against Newcastle on Saturday 4th January at 12:30pm). Is it useful for players or at least give them a break?
Ange: “In terms of getting players back, I don’t think it’s going to make a difference. Certainly, the boys have been working hard and it’s the first midweek we’ve had three for almost two-and-a-half months. They deserve a couple of days away from everything, club, football, to refresh them physically as well as mentally, hopefully that freshens them up ready for a big game next weekend.”
