This is a major challenge for Tottenham.
Details: We continue to share comments and insights from participants ahead of tonight's UEFA Super Cup match, set to take place in Italy at Stadio Friuli between Paris Saint-Germain and England’s Tottenham.
The 51-year-old Danish manager leading Tottenham, Thomas Frank, shared his expectations for the match:
"For everyone connected to Tottenham, this is an important match, a serious test and a great opportunity. We will definitely accept this challenge and give it our all. We’re up against a very strong side, but we’re ready for it.
I have no doubt we’ll put up a fight. Of course, PSG are playing at a higher level and are in peak form, but we’re focused on ourselves and prepared for the upcoming game.
It’s true that our preparation has been more typical, and as coaches, we always prefer a normal build-up. On the other hand, PSG’s situation has its advantages: they played just a month ago, so they haven’t lost everything, there’s still that competitive edge in their bodies, and they’ll come out onto the pitch with plenty of freshness," said Thomas Frank.
Tottenham are the reigning Europa League champions, but according to bookmakers are considered significant underdogs in this fixture.
