adminLONDON. — Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas has told fans to get behind his team and stop creating a negative atmosphere at White Hart Lane.Spurs made hard work of a 1-0 win over Hull City in the English Premier League on Sunday with Roberto Soldado’s 80th-minute penalty all that separated the sides.
Spaniard Soldado’s third goal from the spot and sixth of the season moved Spurs into fourth in the table, but that didn’t stop Villas-Boas from criticising home fans.
“We played in a very difficult atmosphere, very tense, very negative and we looked like the away team but we kept our cool,” said Villas-Boas.
“We had to dig deep within ourselves because we weren’t getting help from anybody, the stadium reflected this atmosphere, very tense and without a lot of support until the first goal. I’m particularly happy with the way the players fought hard against that anxiety and kept their cool to take the three points. — AFP.
