Tottenham Hotspur manager, Jose Mourinho has expressed happiness with the way his team played in the second half against Brighton during their Premier League 2-1 victory on Thursday.
The Portuguese also singled out midfielder, Dele Alli for special praise after his impressive display against Brighton.
A second-half goals from Dele Alli and Harry Kane gave Mourinho’s men all three points against Brighton at home.
“I am very happy with the second half. We changed our width – it’s not about the players but little things that can make a difference,” Mourinho told Amazon Prime after the game.
“The first half was not a disaster. It was not a bad performance – it was a difficult game against a good team and after a defeat, it’s never easy.
“Then when you don’t start well it always affects self-esteem.”
Mourinho added:
“Another goal and another incredible effort and performance from [Dele] Alli from first minute to last.
“His work rate was absolutely incredible so for me these little big details are more important than what people initially see. Amazing goal, I go to two other small details.
“His attitude, his fighting spirit for the team was awesome.”
