Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou praised Oliver Skipp after the Joan Gamper defeat at Barcelona.

Skipp struck both Tottenham goals in the 4-2 friendly loss.

Postecoglou said: "He has been outstanding. Obviously he didn't have much of a break but since he's been in he's got bags of energy and he uses that really well. He maintains an intensity with and without the ball that makes him hard to contend with. He was outstanding tonight. He got a significant knock early but battled through it and that shows the character of him."

On Richarlison's performance, he also stated: "Every player brings their own characteristics to it and that is what we want in the squad. It is not about having like for like, I've never believed that is the way to set up a squad. You want players to provide something different.

"The basic framework of our game doesn't change and the central striker is still the focal point. He got into good areas and we got the ball into him. Every game we've played the striker has had a decent amount of chances and that is what we need to continue to do."
