Tottenham have revealed that the Skopje stadium gates are lower and have called for them to be replaced, José Mourinho revealed, after Spurs won 3: 1 at Shkendija and qualified for the playoffs to enter the Europa League.
The Londoners needed late goals from their stars Hyun Min Son and Harry Kane, who came off the bench to deal with the hosts and slip into a clash with Maccabi Haifa at home. Eric Lamela started in the first half, but Valmir Nafiu tied for the North Macedonia team.
“Before the game there was a curious situation, because our goalkeepers told me that the gates are smaller. I checked myself and it turned out exactly like this, because I know what the height is when I reach out my hand. Still, I thought it might have grown! I may not play in this position, but I know football well and I felt something was wrong. We went to the UEFA delegate, who confirmed that the doors are 5 cm lower and have therefore been replaced, ”explained Mourinho.
There was no doubt that the hosts did it on purpose, as this is not their stadium. As against Lokomotiv Plovdiv last week, the Londoners again failed to convince in their performance and allowed the draw, but with the goals of the team stars in the last 20 minutes, there was no sensation.
“It is good that we won. It is even better that we already have 3 consecutive victories and all as guests. We did not play fantastic, but we did our job. We should have decided the match earlier, but still we did what we had to do,” added the Special.
