Isn't it POSTECH's provocation that answered the booing with gestures, I just wanted to hear the cheering sound.



Isn't it POSTECH's provocation that answered the booing with gestures, I just wanted to hear the cheering sound.
"It's not a response to the ridicule, I just wanted to hear the cheers."

It was Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou's excuse. Tottenham lost 0-1 in the 30th round of the English Premier League in the 2024-2025 season against Chelsea at Stampford Bridge in London, England, at 4 a.m. on the 4th (Korea time). Tottenham are stuck in a four-game winless quagmire. Tottenham finished 14th with 10 wins, 4 draws and 16 losses (34 points).

Tottenham played as an elite player, but also showed lethargy on the day. It was always behind Chelsea, and it didn't create any significant opportunities. Tottenham fans are not responding well to Tottenham's continued sluggishness.




In the 18th minute of the second half, fans booed in the process of removing Lucas Beribal and putting in Papesar. Five minutes later, the twist happened. Sarr shook the Chelsea net with a powerful mid-range shot. Postecoglou made a gesture of bringing his hands to the fans' ears.

However, in the previous process, Sar was found to have hit Moises Caicedo in the knee, and the goal was canceled after a video review. After the game, Postecoglou's behavior was a bad response to the fans, and negative reactions continued.

In the end, Coach Postecoglou spoke about this at a press conference after the game. He "I didn't know it would be interpreted this way. We just scored, and we just wanted to hear the fans' support." Then "I thought I could win if this momentum continued." I wanted the fans to like it more."




As for the booing of the fans "I don't care. This isn't the first time fans have booed my decision. It could be so," he said with little consideration. He finally scored the equalizer, and I just wanted the fans to get a little more excited. You might think he made a gesture with intention, but if the fans supported the players, I thought we could break the opponent's momentum."
