Tottenham Hotspur manager Enze Postecoglou expressed his disappointment over the defeat.
Tottenham lost 1-2 against Newcastle United in the 20th round of the "2024-2025 English Premier League" at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 4th (Korea time).
Tottenham scored the first goal in the fourth minute of the first half. Dominic Solanke, who was rushing a cross from Pedro Porro from the right to the center, connected it with a diving header, and the shot shook Newcastle's net.
The joy did not last long, however. Tottenham equalized two minutes later. Joelinton, who hand-blocked Lucas Beribal's pass, connected for Bruno Guimarães, and Anthony Gordon, who received the penetrating pass, scored with a left footed shot.
Newcastle scored an upset goal in the 38th minute. Jacob Murphy's low cross from the right deflected back from Radu Dragusin's foot and Alexander Isak finished off the ball to make it 2-1 before the end of the first half.
Giving up the lead in the first half, Tottenham put in Sergio Reguilon at the beginning of the second half. In the 16th minute of the second half, Timo Werner, Pape Sarr and Beribal were excluded, and Son Heung-min, James Maddison and Yves Bissouma were replaced at the same time.
However, the substitute card was unsuccessful. In the end, Tottenham ended up with a winless fourth consecutive league game by losing 1-2. Tottenham fell to 12th place in the Premier League with seven wins, three draws, 10 losses and 24 points. Newcastle moved up to fifth place with 35 points.
"I was the most angry in my career," Postecoglou said after the game. "I salute the players considering everything we've been through and the situation we're in right now. I thought it was amazing. I was the most angry in my career that I didn't get a fair reward for my fantastic performance."
Regarding the referee's decision, he said, "I know you want me to say something, but I won't. My thoughts are clear. I'm not interested in such discussions. What I am saying is that if the game was fair, I would have won. I don't know what to say anymore."
Meanwhile, Son was substituted, and Yang Min-hyuk was removed from the list. Ahead of the match against Newcastle, Postecoglou said, "He played a lot for us. We have to manage the players. There is no doubt that Son will return to the starting list." 메이저사이트
As for Yang Min-hyuk, he said, "There is no actual plan for appointment at the moment. You just have to let Yang Min-hyuk adapt. Yang Min-hyuk is still very young. He came from the other side of the world, where the level of competition does not reach the level we will face here. We will give Yang Min-hyuk time to adapt."
