De Zerbi tells Spurs to play for their ‘dignity’ in final-day relegation battle
-
Defeat at Chelsea keeps last relegation place open
-
Spurs need a point at home to Everton to be safe
Roberto De Zerbi has described Tottenham’s looming final-day relegation showdown against Everton as a more important game than last season’s Europa League final against Manchester United because the club’s dignity is at stake.
Spurs, who lost 2-1 at Chelsea on Tuesday night, need a draw at home on Sunday to ensure they stay up at West Ham’s expense. The Hammers, who are two points below them in the final relegation place and with a greatly inferior goal difference, play their final game at home against Leeds.
