Guglielmo Vicario delivers a powerful message to Tottenham supporters after his costly error sparked loud boos from the crowd.
Tottenham Hotspur suffered a humiliating loss in the North London derby last Sunday, but their improved performance against PSG on Wednesday brought a bit of optimism. That hope vanished quickly when Fulham scored twice within the first six minutes of their visit to North London.
Guglielmo Vicario was at fault for the second goal after a poor clearance fell straight to Josh King, who set up Harry Wilson to finish into an empty net.
Vicario accepts blame for his error
The Spurs goalkeeper openly acknowledged his mistake and did not shy away from taking responsibility. On Instagram, Vicario admitted the error and urged his teammates to give everything for the club.
He wrote:
“I take full responsibility for the second goal we conceded. Moments like this hurt, especially when the results aren’t going our way. Now more than ever, it’s time to fight even harder and give everything for this club. COYS.”
Thomas Frank criticises the boos from fans
Thomas Frank had a different view, expressing disappointment with supporters who booed Vicario during the match.
He said:
“I didn’t like that our fans booed him straight after and a few times after that. They can’t be true Tottenham fans because everyone supports each other on the pitch and we do everything we can to perform. I’m fine with them booing after the match, but not during. That is unacceptable in my opinion.”
Vicario, however, stated that fans have the right to boo him if they feel it is deserved.
Supporters lose patience with Vicario’s repeated apologies
While many fans responded to Vicario’s post with supportive messages, others expressed frustration. Some pointed out that he often speaks well off the pitch but continues to make costly errors during games.
They highlighted that he could have simply cleared the ball out for a throw-in but instead played it into a dangerous area. Supporters feel that Vicario makes too many mistakes of this nature and want to see clear improvement on the pitch rather than repeated apologies afterward.
