Postekoglu praises the big players after Tottenham returns to the ways of winning

Angie Postekoglu praised the contributions of his experienced players after Tottenham achieved a 3-2 victory over Hoffenheim in the European League.

The result makes Tottenham closer to the knockout stage, while ensuring progress if he defeated Elsburg at home next Thursday.

Although dealing with a very exhausted team, as there are no 14 players, including 10 due to injuries, the Busticoglu team managed to win in Germany.

The match ended with the presence of five teenagers on the field with Tottenham, including the new expatriate, Kalum Ulusisi.

Tottenham started a great start as Madison shook the net after just four minutes. Sun added two other goals, a goal in each run, bypassing the Hoffenheim player Antonin Stach.

This was followed by a late drama when David scored his head in favor of the owners of the land, but Tottenham held out to reap the three points.

Speaking to TNT SPORTS, Postegoglo praised the leadership of his older players, saying: “Sony was great. I thought that the older children today – Beni (Bin Davis), Mamirz, Roderi (Rodrigo Bintankor), and Sony – they all really stood.

– Tottenham Hot into January 23, 2025

“We needed them. When you play outside your land in Europe, with a young and unparalleled team, you need to stand your leaders, and they did that tonight.

“We wanted to be a bit more aggressive, and I think this is the time when it is in its best cases. In the context of the match, we knew that if we were able to score early and put some pressure on them, this would allow us to get a good foothold in the match. It was good all night – he felt a little tired in the second half but caused them problems all the time.

“It is not easy to win away from our land in Europe. Thanks to the children, I think we were distinguished in the first half, and we really played well. We started somewhat tired in the second half, but we are inhabited, and Sony scored a great goal to give us this additional shield. We have gathered students Schools in the end, and that was a great victory. ”

The finishing of the first eight places in the European League ranking will allow Tottenham to overcome the qualifiers for exclusionary roles, and to avoid two additional matches in a already crowded table.

For Postegoglo, the opportunity to obtain a rare break in the middle of the week is a great incentive for his team affected by injuries.

“I just asked them to enjoy the matter,” Busticoglu added. “Regardless of the situation we are in, winning outside our land in Europe is a great victory for us. It gives us a great foothold to reach those first eight places, which will give us a week’s vacation, which is almost good like reaching the first eight places.

“We have a match on our land (in front of Elsburg), and it is great to be in it. We want to finish the season in the first eight places – this gives us an additional week of comfort from the schedule we have, and perhaps we will also need it.”
