De Zerbi focuses on Spurs' failings - but should Bogle have seen red?
It was somewhat surprising to see Roberto de Zerbi take a more peaceful approach when he faced the media at Elland Road after Tottenham's 1-0 defeat by Leeds United on Saturday afternoon.
Roberto de Zerbi's post-match interview at Elland Road following Tottenham's 1-0 loss to Leeds United on Saturday, painted a picture of a team struggling to recover from a VAR-related red card decision. The manager refused to blame the referee's judgment, instead pointing out Tottenham's lack of performance and character in the second half.
The incident involving Jayden Bogle and Mathys Tel, which resulted in Tel being forced off with a bruised left foot, appeared to be the catalyst for Tottenham's decline. While Bogle managed to escape a red card, his reckless challenge left the Spurs defender concerned about the inconsistency in VAR decisions.
