In the Premier League, there are coaching change weeks.
At the weekend, both Leicester City and Chelsea gave the boot to their managers. That’s how they made a club for Tottenham, who fired Antonio Conte at the end of March.
All three clubs are now trying to move forward with temporary forces, which for the trio means the former second-ranked coach jumping at the helm.
Tottenham played as a substitute for the first time on Monday by Cristian Stellini under. Of course, the Italian had already handled the manager’s duties in the aftermath of Conte’s cholecystectomy, but now he alone had to plan the tactics of the game and its implementers.
– I feel that I am in an important position with a lot of responsibility. I have to learn to fly alone, and of course it won’t be easy, Stellini reasoned.
Relegation battle
Spurs traveled to Goodison Park, Everton’s home ground for their debut, where the home team manager Sean Dyche has had time to push his ideas to the Toffees crew for a couple of months already.
– I have been pleasantly surprised. The players have accepted the new things well. I can assure you that this group really wants to succeed as much as all the fans, the manager wrote in the match program.
Dyche replaced in January Frank Lampard’s, as Everton had slipped too close to the relegation zone. The results of the weekend meant that the Blues had once again dropped below the line.

These starting points could lead to a meeting between two teams that are in pain and doubt their own abilities. Instead, we saw quite a positive and entertaining fight on the grass.
The opening period went well for Everton, but the home team’s supporters were left lamenting the weak finish. When there were visitors In Harry Kane, in Son Heung-Min and Dejan in Kulusevski three world-class attacking players, the hosts’ attempts to score ran away to row 37 of the end stand.
Kane filmed
The balance of power changed radically at the hour mark when Kane and Abdoulaye Doucouré started a mutual fight. The Malian fell to the ground recklessly, and when his palm touched the Spurs star’s cheek, Kane fell to the surface of the grass as if Mike Tyson’s knocked out.
Referee David Coote rewarded the exhibition performance by digging a red card for Doucouré.
The home crowd understood what happened much better than the referee, and booed Kane harshly. This didn’t faze him and just a few minutes later the ball was in the Everton net.
This time there was nothing left for anyone to criticize about Coote’s whistle, that much was clear Michael Keane offense Cristian Romero on. Kane just as clearly shot the ball from the spot into the net.

Harry Kane fanned his 1-0 goal. PDO
Stellini’s primary goal is to secure Tottenham a place in next season’s Champions League. He tried to secure a valuable away win by substituting in the 82nd minute Lucas Moura to the field.
However, Brassi didn’t stay there very long, because only a moment later he flew straight into the shower after a real rough tackle. Even at that stage, no one could doubt that Spurs would be able to waste the budding victory.
However, that’s what happened, because the topper Keane decided to try his luck from 30 meters. World Cup winning goalkeeper Hugo Lloris did not move a single fin before the ball drilled past the post and into the net.
The home crowd went wild in celebration of the supremely valuable equalizer that moved Everton clear of the relegation zone.
