Spurs boss Pochettino still angry over 6-second Newcastle goal: No, no, no!

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is still angry over the manner of their defeat to Newcastle United.

Spurs gave up a halftime lead just six seconds after the restart.

"No, no, no, nothing like that never happened with me on the bench," Pochettino said. "It was the first time and I hope the last time because it was a very bad feeling after that.

"This is impossible you give the opponent a very good present, a gift. It's difficult to accept, for me it's a shame, for me it's difficult to explain and for the players too. We are embarrassed because they made nothing to score. We need to improve and we need to use this situation to improve, but to improve from now.

"This is a good place to move forward from, a turning point. You need to be alive during 90-95 minutes and after you analyse the first goal. This is very, very upsetting. The players know we made a collective mistake."
