Thomas Frank is holding his press conference after his Tottenham side won 4-0 against Copenhagen in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
Brennan Johnson opened the scoring after 19 minutes when he took a Xavi Simons pass into his stride, touched it past the keeper out wide and rolled a lovely finish from outside the box into the empty net. Randal Kolo Muani missed a couple of big chances late in the second half but made up for that in the 51st minute.
The PSG man chased down a long Pedro Porro ball and got a foot to the keeper's attempted clearance which sent it high up in the air. The Frenchman took an cushioned touch to bring it down and picked out Wilson Odobert to slide it home.
The contest looked to have taken a turn for the worse for the hosts when Johnson was shown a red card after the referee was told to go to his monitor to watch the Spurs man's tackle on Marcos Lopez which caught the Copenhagen player's heel.
Tottenham however found another gear. First Micky van de Ven raced from the edge of his own penalty area and just kept going and going before burying a shot past the goalkeeper inside the left-hand post. Then Spurs broke again when Odobert flew up the pitch and played the ball to Romero, who had kept pace with the Frenchman and the captain fired it across to substitute Joao Palhinha to slide home via the keeper's hand.
There was still time for academy striker Dane Scarlett to win a penalty after some good play to get into the box before he was tripped. Richarlison sent the resulting spot kick crashing off the crossbar and not quite over the line, as he had done with a header not long before.

Frank on the game
I would say it was a step forward in how we want to play. Assists and goals from the offensive players and also the structure was good today.

More from the Spurs boss on those Jamie Carragher comments
I haven't seen it. I understand it though. The pundits are pundits, they have to say something about the game. I have been a pundit and I can tell you, it's easier to be that than stand down there [in the dugout].
