Tottenham caretaker manager Cristian Stellini was unhappy with the players ignoring his instructions after their 1-1 draw at Everton.

With both teams having a player sent-off, Spurs surrendered their 1-0 lead in injury-time to a Michael Keane rocket - two minutes after Lucas Moura's dismissal.

Stellini later lamented: "This is the way we play the game with an extra man - you have to do much better.

"It's about intention to keep the ball, to wait to find the right moment to score.

"We had some chances but we didn't find the way to score. It's OK, but also you need players ready to move and to respect the plan. The plan was clear in my idea, and with one extra player we can do it better than this, absolutely.

"We did well for all the game, but 11 players you have to control the game with the ball. We have to do it 11 against 11 but when you have a team like this in their stadium it's never easy. With 11 against 10 it has to be easier than this."
