FA Cup fallout: Conte sympathises with Ndombele after supporter jeers

Tottenham Hotspur manager, Antonio Conte, was sympathetic after fans booed Tanguy Ndombele during Sunday’s win over Morecambe.

The French midfielder drew the ire of supporters when he walked off slowly whilst being substituted at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

As a former player himself, Conte understood why Ndombele was upset.

“I was so focused on the game because we were losing 1-0,” Conte said.

“This type of situation, they are in football. You have to be good to try to change your opinion. If someone is disappointed with you. It’s normal.

“I was a player and it happened sometimes to me that someone was unhappy with my performance. This is our life. I repeat, it’s OK. We have to continue to work and try to be better next time.”
