"White Lily" Tottenham Hotspur defeated Reading 2-0 in an earlier friendly match, and Kevin Danso said that he and the team are working hard to implement the new ideas of new coach Thomas Frank, and believes that they must always maintain the mentality of keeping the opponent scoreless.

In the match against Reading, Tottenham Hotspur's new signing Vuskovic assisted Will Rankhill to score in the second half. Three minutes later, another new signing Kudus assisted Vuskovic to score, helping Tottenham Hotspur to beat Reading 2-0. This was also the first time that new coach Thomas Frank led the team in a game.

It is worth mentioning that Tottenham Hotspur defender Kevin Denso played for Reading when he was 9 years old, and he was a striker. With the baptism of time, Kevin Denso now won the Europa League with Tottenham Hotspur in the 2024/25 season.

Kevin Danso said in an interview, "Reading is where I first came into contact with football academies and left many good memories. There are also other players who later became professional players, such as Gabriel O'Shaw and Tom McIntyre. It feels good to come back and have a look at this place. I haven't been back for a long time. It has indeed been a long time."

Reflecting on the performance against Reading, Kevin Danso said: "You can see that we are working hard to implement the new ideas given by the coach, and I think the overall progress is good. This also includes being aggressive in other things and having the mentality of giving 100% effort."

"Especially for us defenders, we need to keep that mentality of keeping a clean sheet and always be aware of what's happening on the field. Even when we're attacking, we need to keep our eyes on the opponent's striker, pay attention to every detail, and try to play as strong as possible."

In addition, Tottenham Hotspur will face Champions League champions Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup after participating in several pre-season friendly matches.

When talking about the Europa League championship medal, Kevin Danso happily shared, "This medal is placed in a place where I will see it every morning when I wake up or come back from training, right in front of the TV. Occasionally when I look at the medal, I will remind myself that we are the championship team."
