Tottenham: Ange Postecoglou hails influential Dominic Solanke as Richarlison pushes for rare start
Dominic Solanke scored the goal which sent Spurs into the Europa League semi-finals, but could get a rest tonight against Nottingham Forest
Ange Postecoglou has hailed Tottenham’s match-winner in Germany, Dominic Solanke, saying his selfless work rate is key to the side’s chances of success.
Solanke scored the only goal from the penalty spot as Spurs beat Eintracht Frankfurt 1-0 in the Europa League to set up a semi-final against Bodo/Glimt next month.
“Our back four, five were outstanding [in Frankfurt] but our front three were so disciplined also in their defensive work on Thursday. Dom and the two wingers had important jobs for us from a defensive point of view.
