„Tottenham“ returned to official matches after 2 weeks, as they had to miss 3 consecutive matches due to a COVID-19 outbreak in their own club and one match due to an outbreak in the „Leicester“ camp. Antonio Conte's team returned successfully - they fought to a draw at home against „Liverpool“ - 2:2. After the match, the Italian praised certain players to whom he gave a rare chance. „I told my players that on one hand we performed well and had a chance to win against one of the best teams in the world, not just in Europe. We earned a point and in the end it can be a good point“, said A. Conte, hinting at missed opportunities by „Tottenham“. „Harry Winks' performance was good and it wasn't a surprise to me. He works very hard in training and he has impressed me with his desire to play. He is a very good player and when playing behind the 4 centre-backs, he is very, very good. „Dele (Alli) also had a good game, and when we play in a 3-5-2 tactical formation, Dele is very good and has the skills to run forward. Also, Sessegnon had a good performance. I know that if we want to improve and raise our level, we need to work with each player individually to help them improve. If they improve, we will raise this team's level. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to remain competitive“, said the „Tottenham“ manager.
