Thomas Frank is holding his press conference in Hong Kong after Tottenham's pre-season victory against Arsenal on Thursday.
Spurs struck the woodwork three times in the first half. First Pedro Porro's corner curled all the way through and hit the right-hand upright. Tottenham then hit the right-hand post again as Wilson Odobert's slightly deflected low shot hit the woodwork. Somehow the subsequent corner then bounced against the left-hand post, before striking Richarlison and bouncing over.
Pape Matar Sarr then scored a wonderful goal just before the break to give Tottenham the lead after picking up the ball just over the halfway line before sending it back over David Raya and into the net.
It should have been 2-0 to Spurs after the hour mark after some great work by substitute Mathys Tel down the left only for Micky van de Ven to head the Frenchman's cross wide from a good position. At the other end, Arsenal huffed and puffed but never gave Guglielmo Vicario anything to do.
Our Tottenham correspondent Alasdair Gold is out in Hong Kong among those putting the questions to Frank. Scroll down for his latest updates from the press conference at the Kai Tak Stadium.
