Ange Postecoglou challenges a Tottenham supporter before holding a really chilly news conference – Fan Banter
After Man City defeated Tottenham 2-0, Ange Postecoglou confronted a supporter and had a really cold news conference.
The Australian lost his cool when talking to the media, getting into a fight with a supporter behind the Spurs dugout and criticizing the team’s situation.
Losing put an end to their chances of making it into the Champions League, while Manchester City moved up to the top of the standings and now leads Arsenal by two points heading into the last day of the season.
Prior to the pivotal match, Postecoglou expressed dissatisfaction about rumors that his supporters and squad would be content to lose in order to keep rival Arsenal from winning the title.
“I understand the rivalry, but I have never understood, and I never will, why someone would want to see their own team lose,” he remarked. That isn’t the purpose of sports.
Despite the fact that it was one of the most important games of the season for both teams, there wasn’t much of a buzz inside the stadium.
Some Spurs supporters mockingly applauded City’s goals, while others imitated City’s Poznan celebration from last weekend’s match against Fulham.
Video footage from Tuesday night’s game shows Postecoglou yelling back at the supporter he approached while on the touchline.
The 58-year-old manager said, “What did you say, what did you say before that? “pointing to a supporter. Just so I am aware of who you are.
“I was there, and the fan kept pushing Ange to throw the game throughout the game and ultimately Ange lost it at him,” tweeted @SecretPrem.
