Thomas Frank encourages Tottenham to be braver in attack


Tottenham Hotspur beat Arsenal 1-0 in the north London derby in Hong Kong thanks to a goal from Sarr, and manager Thomas Frank says his squad have been discussing the mentality of keeping a clean sheet and has encouraged his players to play bravely and aggressively.


In the match against Arsenal, Sarr took the ball from Lewis Skelly in the 45th minute and scored with a long shot from the center circle, helping Tottenham Hotspur take a 1-0 lead.


In the end, Tottenham Hotspur beat Arsenal 1-0.


Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank said in an interview, "It is a wonderful result to beat Arsenal 1-0. This is a friendly match, but it is also a highly competitive game. I said before the game that the game against Arsenal is never a friendly game. Such a game is of great significance."


"I want to pay tribute to the fighting spirit of both teams in this game. It was a very close game. I was very happy with our performance in the first half. It was a very close game. I really liked the overall performance of the team and our defensive structure was excellent throughout the game."


Praise for Sar's outstanding performance


Thomas Frank pointed out, "In the second half, we had to defend more and we were a little tired. When we take the lead 1-0, the game tends to go in the direction of the opponent's full counterattack."


"However, our defense in the game was also very good, especially in the first half, the high pressure and midfield defense, as well as the key defense in the final stage. We handled it very well."


In addition, Thomas Frank also said, "The fighting spirit shown by the players is also very good. We have been emphasizing the mentality of keeping a clean sheet, which is a very important improvement for the team. We also need to be braver, more active and aggressive in attack. But if we want to win more games, we must do better in other aspects."


Speaking of Sarr's wonderful goal, Thomas Frank said, "This is definitely the best goal of the season, it's really wonderful. For me, he is the well-deserved man of the match. The way he scored this goal was very decisive and wonderful. He quickly found that David Raya was too far forward and then sent the ball into the goal accurately."


"I think Sarr has been performing very well and I've really liked his performances in training and in the games over the last few weeks. He's steadily improving and his overall performance on the pitch has been really good."
