Tottenham can create magic together – Thomas Frank after Manchester City draw

Opposition was in the air with Manchester City In complete control in the first half Tottenham Hotspur Pitch.

The hosts were two goals down and it could and probably should have been more.

However, on a day when campaign group Change for Tottenham called for open revolt in the stands over the club’s perceived lack of ambition in the transfer market and high ticket prices, Thomas Frank’s side produced an impressive performance to draw 2-2.

By the time Dominic Solanke scored his second goal of the match with a wonderfully improvised scorpion kick, any possibility of a mass withdrawal had been averted.

Instead of concluding in the half-empty stands, the phrase “Oh when Tottenham go ahead” echoed throughout the ground throughout in complete contrast to the chorus of boos just 60 minutes earlier.

“We can create something magical together – the players and the fans – when we are as united as we were, especially in the second half but also the Dortmund game,” Frank told BBC Sport.

“That atmosphere and intensity is what drove the players and they really needed it.

“What I like and what I think is really important is that when your back is against the wall as a team and a group you need to fight. You can never give up.

“I love that never-say-die attitude from the players and the fans have been massive for us. The mentality is getting stronger and stronger.”
