Frank Slams 'Unacceptable' Booing of Tottenham Goalkeeper

Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has publicly rebuked fans who booed goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario during a recent Premier League match. The incident occurred after Vicario's error led to Fulham's second goal in their 2-1 victory over Spurs, which was Tottenham's tenth home league defeat in 2025. Frank labelled the booing as "completely unacceptable" and questioned the true allegiance of such supporters.

The decisive moment came early in the match when Vicario lost possession outside his box, attempting to clear the ball near the touchline. He slipped, allowing Fulham's Harry Wilson to score from an impressive 36.6 metres. This mistake drew boos from sections of the home crowd, adding to the frustration as Spurs went 2-0 down before halftime.

Despite a more spirited second-half performance that saw Mohammed Kudus score for Tottenham, the team could not salvage a draw. Former goalkeeper Joe Hart described the second goal as "completely avoidable" and understood the fans' frustration, though he acknowledged Vicario's leadership qualities.
