Although Saturday evening’s Champions League Final ended in a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Liverpool, the efforts of one Tottenham Hotspur man certainly stood out for many.
Despite having the better chances in the game, we didn’t do enough with them and on an attacking front we weren’t our brighter selves sadly and that was ultimately the difference. Danny Rose’s efforts on the night saw him more back to his better self from previous years and he took plenty of plaudits on the left hand side.
Statistics website Whoscored gave the better players ratings, rather predictably, to Liverpool and Rose was the only player who scored above seven for us so he took their Man of the Match award.
It was a poor night though for a variety of reasons, but we can still be proud of reaching the final in the first place – we just have to ensure that we use it as a base to kick on further, just like Jurgen Klopp’s side did last season.
