Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou praised his injury-stricken team's performance despite a 2-1 home loss to Newcastle United. The defeat adds to Tottenham's recent struggles, leaving them with only five points from their last eight Premier League games. Despite a depleted squad, Tottenham dominated large portions of the match, but ultimately fell short.

A 2-1 home loss to Newcastle United was hardly how Postecoglou needed the New Year to begin. With a League Cup semi-final first leg looming against Liverpool on Wednesday and their next Premier League fixture away at Arsenal, things could potentially get worse for the under-pressure Australian. Yet they began the game well, taking the lead in the fourth minute through Dominic Solanke's header, and dominated the second half as they battled to get back on level terms.
"What I'm saying is, on any given day with a fair and even playing field and logical thought processes we would have won that game, that's it. You can make what you want of that."
