Ange Postecoglou has given an update on Pedro Porro after the Tottenham star limped off against Newcastle United – with the huge clash against Arsenal on the horizon.
Tottenham were humiliated 4-0 at St. James’ Park on Saturday, with their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League taking a huge hit.
Two goals in two minutes from Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon saw Newcastle take the lead at half-time, before Isak and Fabian Schar scored after the break to complete the rout.
With six games to go, they remain level on points with Aston Villa but the heavy defeat means they have slipped to fifth on goal difference.
To make matters worse, Spurs appeared to suffer an injury blow early in the second-half when Porro – who was at fault for Gordon’s goal – went down.
Postecoglou wasted no time in subbing the right-back off, with Emerson Royal taking his place in the 49th minute.
It was a worrying sight for fans, especially with three huge fixtures up next for Spurs: the North London derby against Arsenal, followed by trips to Chelsea and Liverpool.
Two goals in two minutes! ð¤¯
