Cristian Stellini criticises Tottenham for failing to hold on against Everton

Posted Tuesday, April 04, 2023 by PA
Interim boss Cristian Stellini accused his Tottenham players of being unable to stick to a plan as life after Antonio Conte began in familiar fashion with a 1-1 draw at Everton.
Stellini, who was Conte’s assistant, was taking charge of Spurs for the first time since his fellow Italian’s exit in the wake of his explosive press conference following the 3-3 draw against Southampton before the international break.
And this was an unwelcome sequel at Goodison Park as Spurs were unable to hold on to a lead against 10 men.
Shortly after Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure had been sent off for striking Harry Kane in the face, the England captain put Spurs in front from the penalty spot and the three points looked to be theirs.
But they needlessly invited pressure on to themselves and moments after Lucas Moura was also sent off, Michael Keane scored a searing 30-yard screamer, which moved Everton out of the bottom three.
Stellini said his side had to do “much better” when playing with an extra man.
