April 17, 2025 <\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nSpurs held on in the second half with Fares Chaibi and Rasmus Kristensen missing great chances for Eintracht.<\/p>\n
But the victory means Tottenham ended a three-match away losing run in the knockout rounds of major European competition.<\/p>\n
Moreover, among Englishmen only James Tavernier in 2021-22 (seven goals, two assists) and Bobby Zamora in 2009-10 (six goals, two assists) have been involved in more goals in a single Europa League season than Solanke this term (three goals, four assists).<\/p>\n
Asked what impressed him most against Eintracht, Postecoglou added: \u201cJust the togetherness of the lads, it\u2019s fair to say there\u2019s been a fair bit of noise around the team but you wouldn\u2019t know it.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey didn\u2019t care, they\u2019ve just been so focused on us achieving what we want to and I\u2019m super proud of them.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe travelling fans were brilliant tonight, hopefully they enjoy it, they deserve it. Our fans have been through a lot too and we understand their disappointment.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut hopefully this just gives them something to look forward to.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tottenham now face Norwegian outfit Bodo\/Glimt in the semi-finals after a dramatic penalty-shoot-out win over Lazio.<\/p>\n
The Serie A giants, trailing 2-0 from the first leg, levelled the tie at two-apiece with Tijjani Noslin scoring deep into injury time at Stadio Olimpico.<\/p>\n
It looked as though the hosts were going through when Boulaye Dia put Lazio ahead but Andreas Helmersen restored parity once more then was sent off in the last minute of extra time, before the visitors went on to win on penalties 3-2.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
