Thomas Frank Secures Vital Win for Tottenham Against Borussia Dortmund
Posted on January 21, 2026, updated on January 21, 2026
Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has temporarily silenced critics with a crucial 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League, easing pressure after a series of disappointing results. The win came as a relief for both Frank and the fans, who had previously chanted for his dismissal.
Goals from Christian Romero and Dominic Solanke in the first half were instrumental in reviving the club's hopes of progressing in the tournament. Following the loss to West Ham, there were fears that another defeat could have marked the end of Frank's tenure at Spurs.
Despite the victory, lingering skepticism remains among fans regarding Frank’s long-term viability. Some supporters have expressed disappointment with the team's inconsistency and tactical approach. However, the performance against Dortmund demonstrated the potential for a more cohesive effort moving forward.
As Tottenham navigates through a critical phase of the season, Frank’s ability to maintain momentum and improve league performances will be crucial. The upcoming match against Burnley will be another test, and a win could solidify confidence in his ongoing strategic vision for the team.
