EPL: I saw fire in Tottenham players’ eyes – Conte

 


Tottenham Hotspur manager, Antonio Conte, has hailed his players’ mentality following a 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Harry Kane scored twice while Heung-Min Son also got on the scoresheet.

The result sees Spurs go six points clear of Liverpool who lost 1-0 at Bournemouth earlier in the day.

Conte has now reflected on an important victory for his team who exited the FA Cup and Champions League within one week.

“Today in my players I have seen the fire in their eyes.

“Today was really important, it was vital to get three points, especially after the game against Milan, but today it was really important because we know we only have the league now.

“There are 11 games to go, we needed today to bounce back to show that we are strong mentally,” Conte said.
