Tottenham fans will love what captain Cristian Romero has said following the club’s hard-fought win away at Leeds United.
Tottenham Hotspur became the first team to beat Leeds at Elland Road in 12 months, with the Lilywhites delivering a professional performance to come away with all three points.
Thomas Frank delivered another tactical masterclass away from home, with Spurs managing to keep Leeds at arm’s length for large parts of the encounter and looking threatening whenever they countered with pace.
That means that Spurs now go into the international break on the back of a win, a feeling that has become alien to their supporters.
Cristian Romero is delighted to get back to winning ways with Tottenham
Ahead of the clash against Leeds, Tottenham had won only one of their previous four matches across all competitions: their 3-0 win over Doncaster Rovers in the third round of the Carabao Cup.
Romero admitted that Spurs got a ‘massive’ result away from home and that they needed to get back to winning ways.
The Tottenham captain suggested on social media that there were excellent performances across the pitch by his teammates this afternoon.
Romero wrote: ‘Massive win away from home! Buzzing to get back to winning ways. Quality from all the team today at Spurs. Big love to the fans for the support, see you soon!’
Spurs have found the right formula away from home
Thomas Frank’s Tottenham have come under criticism for not creating enough chances at home against teams who sit back.
However, there is no doubt that the Danish coach has cracked the code to getting results away from home, given the tactical discipline and the defensive solidity he has instilled in this Spurs side.
Tottenham have now won three and drawn one of their four away games so far this season, which is a formidable record in the Premier League.
