Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario was seen giving young midfielder Lucas Bergvall an earful during the closing moments of their recent match against Leicester City.
The incident took place in the 91st minute with the score tied at 1-1. Bergvall, who had shown promise after coming on as a substitute, lost possession in a dangerous position.
This led to a close call for Spurs, as Stephy Mavididi intercepted the ball and set up Wilfred Ndidi for a header that Vicario managed to save.

What’s your feeling towards Vicario shouting at 18 year-old, Lucas Bergvall after his mistake leading to a chance for Leicester? 🤔

Hope Ange pulls Vicario over hot coals behind closed doors. Bergvall looked good when he came on & absolutely did not deserve that public bollocking. I didn’t see him bollocking Romero when he left Vardy.

The Italian goalkeeper’s furious reaction has sparked a debate among Tottenham fans, with some praising him for his passion while some have criticised him for his unnecessary reaction aimed at a youngster making his debut in arguably the most difficult league in the world.
