Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has hailed the performances of his senior players, particularly Son Heung-min and James Maddison, who played a key role in Spurs’ 3-2 Europa League win over Hoffenheim on Tuesday.

Maddison opened the scoring early and Son scored twice as Spurs secured an important win despite the club being without 10 injured players and with five youngsters on the pitch by the end of the game. “
Sonny did a fantastic job today. I thought the senior players like Benny (Ben Davies), Madders (Maddison), Rodri (Bentancur), Sonny all did a great job,” Postecoglou told เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย Sports.
“We need them to do that. Playing away in Europe against young and inexperienced teams you need to rely on the leaders in the team and they did really well tonight.
“We wanted to be more aggressive and I think that’s when Madders are at their best. In the context of the game. We knew if we scored early and put them under pressure, it would give us an advantage in the game. He played well the whole game. Even though he look tired in the second half, he caused problems for the opponent. “
It’s not easy to win away in Europe, credit to the boys. I thought we were excellent in the first half, played very well. In the second half we looked a bit tired but we kept fighting until Sonny score a wonderful goal to give us an advantage. At the end of the game we had a new boy (Callum Olusesi) and it was a great win. “
I just told them to enjoy it, no matter what the situation is. Winning away in Europe is a big win for us. It puts us in a good position to be in the top eight, which gives us a week off. Which is almost as good as qualifying. “
They enjoyed the night. Now we recover and prepare for Sunday. “
We have a home game (at Elfsborg). This is a great situation for us. We want to finish in the top eight so we have a week off with the fixtures we have. “
Spurs will guarantee a top eight finish if they beat Sweden’s IF Elfsborg next Thursday.
