Chelsea loanee Romelu Lukaku scored a late winner as Roma complete a comeback against Lecce.
What Pochettino said
The hosts scored first, but Chelsea equalised from the penalty spot. Following the red card, the Blues found it easier to get in behind Tottenham’s backline due to their insistence on playing a high line, the Blues eventually capitalised as Nicolas Jackson scored a hattrick later in the game
"Look, when you are on the top of the table, you can try everything. When the confidence is there you try it. If we try something like this, then in every movement, you concede. We are maybe in a different position and with space in behind we can maybe score more goals."
