The match was a classic encounter between two of the Premier League’s most storied teams, and it did not disappoint. Arsenal opened the scoring early on through a goal from Alexandre Lacazette, but Spurs responded quickly through a goal from Harry Kane. The Gunners then took the lead again through a penalty from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, but Spurs were able to level the score late in the game thanks to a goal from Lucas Moura.
Postecoglou was delighted with his team’s performance, saying: “I thought our reaction to going behind twice was first class. We showed great character and determination to keep fighting and get the result we deserved.”
The result leaves Spurs in sixth place in the Premier League table, while Arsenal remain in tenth. Both teams will be looking to build on this result as they look to challenge for a top four finish this season.
