Manager of Tottenham Hotspur, Ange Postecoglou, expressed that his team made things “easy” for Arsenal in their 3-2 defeat during Sunday’s match.
Arsenal secured a three-goal advantage in the first half, with Spurs managing to claw back with two goals after the break.
However, their efforts fell short as Postecoglou’s squad now faces a setback in their quest for Champions League qualification.
Reflecting on the performance, Postecoglou told Sky Sports, “Granting them such effortless access to our goal in the initial period was below par for this level of play, and we bore the consequences.”
“Despite aiming to restore some hope for our fans in the second half, the outcome remains highly disappointing,” he added.
He further highlighted, “We are yet to exhibit the desired level of resiliency, particularly during transitional phases and set-pieces. Allowing our opponents such convenient entry to our goal is something we must rectify. They possess quality and are adept at capitalizing on defensive lapses.”
