10:48pm, 9 May 2025【Football】

Recommended Network reported on May 5 that Tottenham Hotspur team tied 1-1 with West Ham in the Premier League. After the game, coach Postkoglu accepted an interview with the media. He first affirmed the team's performance. Despite the substitution adjustments of up to eight points, the players still showed tenacious fighting spirit and good execution ability on the away game. Postkoglu said that although the result of the game failed to win, the draw was also a reward for the players' efforts, especially when both sides were in a bad state, such a cautious showdown was reasonable.

Regarding the substitution adjustment, Postkoglu explained that this is the team's current helpless move. Tottenham has been suffering from injuries this season, and the situation has not yet eased. The upcoming Europa League semi-finals make the team dare not take it lightly. Therefore, appropriate rotation of players in the league is to better manage the team's injury problems and balance the dual tasks of the league and European wars.

When talking about West Ham United's goal, Postkoglu seemed a little regretful. He believes that this goal should not have happened, especially because the opponent has excellent offensive players like Bowen and Kudus, whose scoring ability puts a lot of pressure on Tottenham's defense. However, Postkoglu was also satisfied with the team's overall defense performance, but was not very satisfied with the way the goal was conceded.

In addition, Postkoglu also mentioned the injuries of Solank and Madison. Solank is recovering and is expected to make a comeback on Thursday, while Madison's situation is slightly complicated, but the team is optimistic about him. Postkoglu stressed that the team has had a pretty bad season in terms of injuries and luck, and now at a critical moment in the Europa League semi-finals, it is necessary to manage the health of players more rationally to ensure that they can make a difference in the league and European competition.
