De Zerbi Loses Spurs Debut

The loss marks a sobering start for De Zerbi, who admitted that his players are 'suffering' from a lack of confidence and the growing fear of relegation.

Tottenham now sits 18th in the table, two points adrift of safety with only six matches remaining in the season.

Club captain Cristian Romero was seen in tears after the final whistle, an image that many analysts believe could define Spurs’ season if they fail to avoid the drop.

De Zerbi remains optimistic that a single victory could shift the team’s momentum, but the pressure is mounting as the schedule tightens.
