Tottenham Goalie, Hugo Lloris Hails Spurs Comeback Spirit Against Marseille To Book UCL Round of 16 Qualification

According to Hugo Lloris, Tottenham’s ability to steal a comeback victory against Marseille indicates the positive changes in the team so far.

Spurs Captain believes his side’s ability to secure a comeback victory against Marseille means there are hopes for greater good to come.

Tottenham produced a sensational 2-1 show against their Group D opponents at the Stade Velodrome on Tuesday night with Heung-min Son limping off the game as they finish top of the group to secure top table place.

Chancel Mbemba’s header saw Spurs hanging on one foot as the both teams headed into the locker rooms for the half time break with Tottenham needing to just avoid a loss in order to seal their qualification.

Lenglet after minutes into the second half netted the equalizer with his first goal for the North Londoners before a lost time goal from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg sealed their hopes.

“To be honest, we expected that type of game. The Stade Velodrome is a very difficult place to deal with and I think we showed great personality,” Lloris told reporters.

“Clement (Lenglet) scored a very important goal in France, in front of the French people. The second goal from Pierre (Hojbjerg) confirmed things for the group. We didn’t play well during the first half. Maybe we didn’t know what would happen if we attack. It wasn’t good for us to play this type of first half.

“We speak in the locker room – we start the second half with much more personality and aggressive. We play a very good second half.

“It was a tough night, a great battle and even more psychological battle because we could feel in the first half a team was playing without the fear to lose, it was Marseille, and in the second half we face a team with the fear to lose.”
