Latest Tottenham news: Guglielmo Vicario appears to share his thoughts on an incident during the encounter between Manchester City and Arsenal.
Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario appeared to react to a specific moment during Arsenal‘s match against Manchester City. The Gunners defeated Tottenham in the North London Derby last weekend, with Gabriel Magalhaes scoring the winner, and he was on target again at Etihad Stadium.
Prior to then, Erling Haaland opened the scoring, and Riccardo Calafiori equalized midway through the first half. Gabriel scored in back-to-back away games, nodding home Bukayo Saka’s corner as the first 45 minutes came to an end.
Just minutes before, City received a clear warning of what their visitors might accomplish from set pieces, with Gabriel wriggling free only to head over the bar. Mikel Arteta‘s team offered a threat from corners, as the Brazil international scored the winner at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last weekend.
Spurs’ trouble defending corners was previously well known, with Vicario being chastised for not dominating his box. Similar criticism came his way last Sunday, with many believing he could have been stronger and moved off his line to clear Saka’s in-swinging corner.
Gabriel Martinelli impeded Ederson from getting to the delivery for Gabriel’s last goal, despite the fact that Michael Oliver and VAR did not believe he committed a foul. Vicario appeared to express his frustrations on Instagram after witnessing the Man City goalkeeper being kept on his line.
The actual meaning of his Instagram tale is unclear, but it is most likely a reference to Gabriel’s goal and the rarely punished infringement on goalkeepers from corners. Vicario was unfazed by Brentford’s set pieces in Tottenham’s 3-1 victory over the weekend, although he did have some nervous moments.
In the second half, he demonstrated why he is so revered by Tottenham fans by making a fantastic save to deny Kevin Schade with the score tied at 2-1.
