[땡큐뉴스 / 이근우 기자] Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte’s first Premier League match ended in a draw.
Tottenham Hotspur finished the match against Everton in the 11th round of the English Premier League for the 2021-22 season held at Goodison Park in Liverpool, England on the 7th at 11 pm (Korea time) in a 0-0 draw.
Conte, the successor of manager Nunu Espiritu Santo, who was sacked in the match, started his first EPL match. On the 5th, the UEFA Europa Conference League Group G match against Pitesser was won 3-2.
Coach Conte used key players such as Son Heung-min, Harry Kane, and Lucas Moura, but was silent with 0 shots on target. In particular, ‘Whoscored.com’, a European soccer statistics site, gave a low rating to Tottenham’s attacking team, who could not even record an effective shot.
In response, Conte said, “There were many passing mistakes during the attack. If the passing accuracy was high at the finish stage, there would have been a chance to score.”
“We are at the beginning stage,” he said. He did not concede a single goal that day. It was a draw, but a good result. I’ve identified a few scenes that were tactically tried. Also, the players showed a willingness to fight for the team.”
Meanwhile, Tottenham will take a break for about two weeks during the match A period and resume the EPL schedule with a match against Leeds United on the 22nd.
