Tottenham coach Jose Mourinho complained about the cancellation of the Fulham match in public.
Tottenham will play the 17th round of the 2020-21 English Premier League (EPL) with Leeds United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England at 9:30 pm on the 2nd.
At an official press conference held ahead of the game, coach Mourinho said, “I don’t want to talk in particular about the cancellation of the Fulham match scheduled for the 31st of last month. However, I don’t think the decision to cancel the match at the time was like a pro.
Tottenham were scheduled to play EPL round 16 with Fulham on the 31st of last month. However, the number of confirmed coronavirus infections (Corona 19) surged in Fulham, and the EPL secretariat canceled the game with less than 3 hours left to start the game.
“I prepared for the match against Fulham, but I couldn’t play the game, so the training schedule was disrupted. If I knew the cancellation of the game in advance, I would have prepared another program.” Insisted.
Earlier, coach Mourinho expressed dissatisfaction with the decision to cancel the late match. Head coach Morinho posted a post about four hours before Fulham, saying, “I still don’t know whether the game will be held,” along with a video of the Tottenham coaching staff waiting for the game to be held on his SNS. In addition, he was sarcastic about the EPL, saying that it is “the best league in the world.”
Tottenham should forget about the cancellation of Fulham and focus on the Leeds. Tottenham haven’t won their last 4 league games with 2 draws and 2 losses. The ranking, which was the leader, fell to 7th place.
Head coach Mourinho said, “Last month’s defeat against Liverpool (1-2) started sluggishness. At that time, we were able to win against Liverpool, but we lost. The performance is not good and the results are bad. Threw it.
