Conversation Corner: Tottenham against Monaco
Dele Alli:
“Dele Alli’s here. Dele, one-all against Monaco in the end and they caught us late didn’t they? And you just said to us off camera it feels like a defeat really.”
“Yeah you know I think it was a strong first half from us and maybe we could have seen the game out then and you know finish a few of our chances, but they weren’t to be. And I think it shows how well we’re doing, I mean to obviously come away to Monaco and 1-1 to feel like a loss and you know the boys are down and I think it’s important that we pick ourselves up again and take the positives from today and into the game against Swansea in the weekend.”
“The game was quite open in the second half wasn’t it?. It did look like we were going to get a second goal to be honest, but teams like this have got goals in them haven’t they?”
“Yeah definitely, you know obviously they’re a good side and we knew what we had to do to win the game and we stuck to the game plan but unfortunately they got that goal. But like you said I think that there were chances to see the game out and finish it out with a few more goals but today it just wasn’t to be.”
