Spurs’ Unbelievable Collapse: Postecoglou Reveals the One Mistake That Destroyed Tottenham’s Momentum
Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has pulled no punches following his team’s shocking 2-0 loss to Fulham, revealing that a single mistake derailed Spurs’ momentum in the Premier League clash.
Speaking after the match, Postecoglou focused on a critical error made by centre-back Cristian Romero in the second half, which ultimately led to Fulham’s opening goal. Romero, who has been a key defensive figure for Tottenham this season, failed to track Fulham’s Issa Diop during a corner, allowing the Fulham defender to score with a powerful header. Postecoglou was visibly frustrated, saying, “That mistake changed the game. We were in control up until that point, and that error was the catalyst for everything that followed.”
The goal gave Fulham the confidence they needed, with Harry Wilson adding a second shortly after to seal the victory. Spurs, who had shown promising attacking intent in the first half, were unable to recover from the setback.
Postecoglou, known for his tactical clarity, did not mince words about the mistake: “Football is about moments, and we let that moment slip. One individual’s error led to a shift in the game’s balance, and we couldn’t get it back.”
Tottenham’s defeat has raised questions about their consistency, with Postecoglou’s side failing to respond to setbacks in the same way they had in previous matches. As Spurs aim to bounce back, the focus will be on ensuring such costly mistakes are avoided in future games.
