The game-winning goal by T. Dejan Kulusevski attributed their dramatic 2-1 victory over Sheffield United on Saturday to head coach Ange Postecoglou’s composure.
After Gustavo Hamer gave the Blades the lead in the 73rd minute, Spurs were on the verge of suffering their first Premier League loss under the Australian.
However, the home team maintained their composure and tied the score through Richarlison in the eighth minute of stoppage time before Kulusevski buried the winning goal two minutes later to ignite joyous celebrations.
As the team continued to enjoy success, Swedish forward Kulusevski paid gratitude to his manager after the team’s fourth straight league triumph.
I felt fairly calm, he admitted to SpursPlay. After all, it’s just a football game, so I tried to maintain my composure.
“When Richy scored, we knew we wouldn’t lose, and I then received the ball and did what I do best. I am aware that all it takes is one successful play for me to succeed, and that is what happened.
“We must maintain our composure. We as players must maintain the same level of composure as our coach, Ange, who is constantly on the sidelines.
“Remain composed, have faith in one another, and have fun together. We can do a lot better.
We believed we would score a lot of goals in the first half because we were so eager to score, but we need to remain composed at all times and wait for the game to come to us.
