Tottenham falls to a 1-0 Premier League defeat at Crystal Palace, with coach Ange Postecoglou saying his side lacked composure, while his goalkeeper says Spurs lacked fight and energy.
Tottenham lost 1-0 to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park thanks to a goal from Jean-Philippe Mateta. Tottenham Hotspur boss Ange Postecoglou has rued his side's lack of composure in a 1-0 defeat at Crystal Palace , saying the visitors conceded a poor goal after losing the ball near their own box.
"We could have dealt with those situations better but it was a poor goal and we should do better at that and not concede like that," Postecoglou told reporters. "There are still ways you can overcome that but it was a poor goal to concede because the game was always an arm-wrestle. It was never going to be one with bags of chances … so to concede like that was disappointing."
"How the referee deals with that, not so much in terms of the challenges but in terms of stoppages and taking their time, all of that is out of our control. But I just felt when we had control of things, we could have dealt with it better.
