Tottenham Hotspur faced another disappointing defeat at home, losing 2-1 to Fulham. The match, held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, marked a continued struggle for the team under manager Thomas Frank. Fulham, seeking their first away victory in the Premier League this season, secured all three points with first-half goals from Kenny Tete and Harry Wilson.
Fan Reactions and Pedro Porro’s Apology
The defeat led to an uproar among Tottenham supporters, who booed the team off the pitch. Following the match, Pedro Porro was visibly frustrated and engaged in a heated discussion with teammate Lucas Bergvall. Porro later took to social media to express his feelings, where he criticized some fans for being “disrespectful” to his teammates. He also expressed gratitude towards the “true” Tottenham supporters.
Upcoming Challenge Against Newcastle
As Spurs prepare to face Newcastle United in their next Premier League outing, Frank is hopeful for a positive response from his players. Tottenham has achieved impressive away victories this season, including wins at Everton, Leeds, West Ham, and Manchester City. However, they previously lost to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup, falling 2-0 at St James’ Park in October.
