Claudio Ranieri Delighted With 'Fantastic' Leicester Performance Against Tottenham

Published on: 29 October 2016

Claudio Ranieri has expressed his delight atwhat he described as a 'fantastic' Leicester performance at White Hart Lane.


The Foxes held their own against unbeaten Tottenham and came away from North London with their first away point in the Premier League this season.


Ranieri's side looked a different team to the one that conceded a total of 11 goals in three away games against Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea, and the Leicester boss was extremely impressed with his team's improvements.

I'm very pleased with our performance. It was fantastic,� Ranieri toldLCFC TVat full-time.


"We found our team spirit that was so good last season. The players made a fantastic effort with a single spirit. It was a fantastic performance and well done to my players.


Tottenham is one of the best teams. They are fighting to win the title and they were our strong rivals last season. They are fighting for the title and we want to do the same. I think our fans and the Tottenham fans enjoyed it a lot because until the end both teams tried to win the match.

This is our philosophy “ to try to win all the matches. I speak about spirit because one thing is spirit and another thing is how you play football, but when you play with a strong team spirit, the performance is always good."


Leicester now turn their attention to the Champions League, where they currently sit top of their group with three wins from three. They travel to Denmark to play Copenhagen in the week, where a win would ensure qualification to the last 16.


This result gives us a lot of confidence and energy but now we have another tough match [against FC Copenhagen on Wednesday]," Ranieri added.
