It was a ruthless showing from the north Londoners, who netted four goals away from home for🔯 the first time si🐻nce their 5-0 win at Southampton back in December.

Speaking after the final whistle, Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna opted to praise Tottenham instead of being bitter about the result – highlighting one thing in particular that impress𝔍ed him about Spurs.

Kieran McKenna praises Tottenham for clinical finishing

Speaking to Match of the Day, ཧthe 38-year-old said: “We had a great start to the game. I thought we were the better team in the first half, but we were not able to🥀 cash in on a good start.

“The💮ir execution was top and our defending in those moments wasn’t good enoughﷺ. They were clinical.

“Their level was higher taking the opportunities that came their way. We have conceded four goals 🌊– you cannot say we got everything perfect.”

McKenna – who used to work at Tottenham as an acaℱdemy coach – was evidently disappointed in his side’s defending,ꦜ but you do have to give Spurs credit for making the Tractor Boys pay.

Why life could be about to get even better for Ange Postecoglou and Spurs fans

With three successive Premier League wins under the💙ir belt, Tottenham could be ab🧔out to embark on an exciting end to the 2024/25 campaign.

Postecoglou has already welcomed Johnson back into the fold, who popped up with two important goals at Portman Road, and after the first week of March, Postecoglou, who hailed Kevin Danso, should have three other vital players returning in Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero and Dominic Solan♒ke.

Hopefully – once everybody is back – Spurs can avoid losing any further players to injuries, after wh🔴at has been a quite disast🐽rous season on the medical front.
