Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou acknowledged the challenge of playing at Goodison Park emphasizing the pressure Everton puts on visiting teams in the latter stages. Despite leading twice, Spurs settled for a draw due to Jarrad Branthwaite’s late equalizer. Postecoglou expressed disappointment noting the need for a third goal to secure the win.

He acknowledged Goodison Park’s tough environment but highlighted missed opportunities and late concessions. The manager also commented on the reluctance of referees to call fouls in the box accepting it as part of the game.

Richarlison’s two goals on his return to Everton pleased Postecoglou who believes the Brazilian can elevate his performance further. Overall, Spurs faced challenges but aim to move forward from the drawn match.
