After a 1-1 draw against Southampton during the week, Tottenham Hotspur got back into the win column against Watford on Saturday. The north London club was able to secure all three points with a late goal from Davinson Sánchez.
Following the late victory by Spurs, manager Antonio Conte spoke to Sky Sports, where he discussed the scoring chances his squad had throughout the match.
“We scored at the end, but I think we tried and tried for the whole game,” Conte said. “In this type of game, you have to be intelligent to attack. They are very dangerous on the counter-attack and are strong physically, as well as fast.”
“I think we played a good game and controlled it for sure. When we arrive at the last pass, sometimes we have to improve to score. It was difficult because we didn’t score but created chances, and when you find an opponent who is well organized, it is not simple.”
Tottenham will hope to carry this momentum when they face off against Chelsea in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-finals.
