Tottenham, whose "Champions League ticket" was virtually flown, even showed an ugly scene of collisions between defenders during the game.
Tottenham lost 2-4 to Liverpool in the 36th round of the 2023-24 English Premier League (EPL) held at Anfield, Liverpool, England on the 6th. If they are in the top 4 of this season's league, they can advance to the UEFA Champions League (UCL) next season, but Tottenham, ranked fifth, has been losing for four consecutive years, making it difficult to leap to fourth place virtually.
Shortly after the first half of the Liverpool match ended 0-2, when the atmosphere was already bad, Tottenham players were caught arguing.
Tottenham defender Christian Romero and Emerson Royal started arguing with a furious look on their way out of the ground at half-time. The atmosphere got worse, and the two seemed to be exchanging complaining words to each other. It was only then that the situation calmed down when Tottenham's goalkeeper Vicario intervened between them and made Romero shoulder-to-shoulder, making them separate.
Tottenham already had a loss in the first half. They conceded a header to Salah in the 16th minute of the first half, and Andy Robertson scored an additional goal in the 45th minute, giving Liverpool a 2-0 lead.
There was no turnaround in the second half, with Tottenham players even fighting after the first half. Liverpool pushed forward with Hakpo in the 5th minute of the second half and Elliott in the 14th minute of the second half. Tottenham only had Hicharlisson in the 27th minute of the second half and Son Heung-min in the 32nd minute of the second half.
After the game, Tottenham manager Anji Postecoglou covered Tottenham players when they were asked about their collision situation, the British Guardian said.
"That's how much they care," Postecoglou responded to the players' altercation. "It means that the players are not satisfied with the current situation, and it happened because they want to improve further. They pay attention and want to change the situation," he added.
"It was a disappointing result, but we showed a little more of ourselves today compared to the last losses," Postecoglou said. "We scored two goals today, but we should have tried to score two more." 토토사이트 순위
