Tottenham fans have turned on one of their own after the 2-2 draw with Manchester United, blaming him for the goals conceded at home on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Bryan Mbeumo put United ahead just after the half-hour mark with a precise header, before Spurs fought back in the second half. Mathys Tel levelled the score late on, and Richarlison thought he\u2019d sealed a dramatic win in stoppage time \u2014 only for Matthijs de Ligt to snatch a point for United with a last-gasp header from a corner.<\/p>\n
While Brennan Johnson came under fire for his display, much of the criticism was directed at goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, who fans felt was at fault for the late equaliser.<\/p>\n
The Italian shot-stopper, who joined Spurs in June 2023, has yet to fully convince supporters after a previous blunder against Brighton. Against United, Vicario conceded twice from the visitors\u2019 only two shots on target, posting just 66% pass accuracy and struggling to deal with crosses \u2014 making only one high claim all game.<\/p>\n
His hesitation to come off his line for De Ligt\u2019s header proved costly, drawing heavy backlash online. One fan wrote on X:<\/p>\n
> \u201cVicario is one of many that need upgrading \u2014 great shot-stopper, but a liability from set pieces.\u201d
\nAnother added:
\n\u201cVicario was trolling for that goal. The header was crawling in and he still stepped back instead of attacking it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
