2025, equalling the club's record for most home losses in a calendar year. The early goals by Kenny Tete and Harry Wilson left Spurs trailing within six minutes, leading to boos from the crowd.
Thomas Frank expressed his displeasure with the booing directed at goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario following his mistake that led to Fulham's second goal. "When you're down 2-0 after six minutes, there is a mountain to climb," Frank stated. He emphasised that true supporters should back their team during the match and not express dissatisfaction until after the final whistle.

Despite a stronger second-half performance from Spurs, where they created more chances and pulled a goal back through Mohammed Kudus, they couldn't find an equaliser. Frank acknowledged the emotional nature of the game but stressed the importance of sticking to the plan and remaining composed under pressure.
Silva noted that while Fulham struggled more in the second half, they managed to hold on for a crucial win that distanced them further from relegation concerns. He praised his players' unity and determination, stating that they deserved all three points for their efforts throughout the match.
The result leaves Tottenham reflecting on a challenging period as they aim to improve their form at home. Meanwhile, Fulham will look to build on this victory as they continue their campaign with renewed confidence.
