Conte turned into the main Spurs director to go his initial seven association games unbeaten however was left baffled at imparting the focuses to an exhausted Saints, who played the last 50 minutes with ten men following Mohammed Salisu's red card.
The safeguard was shipped off briefly bookable offense later a reasonable foul on Heung-min Son nearby and Harry Kane dispatched the punishment to counterbalance James Ward-Prowse's shocking opening objective.
Prods were distressed at having two objectives refused in the last part, with Kane controlled partially offside by the VAR before a brand name finish and Matt Doherty punished for fouling Fraser Forster later the goalkeeper had spilled a cross into his own net.
Conte was in any case despondent next to him's showcase and by two dropped, says his leggy players felt the strain in a moment match in 48 hours."For sure, it was a chance that we missed," Conte said. "You attempt to take advantage of that circumstance to attempt to get three focuses. We realized very well that playing Southampton in this arena is difficult.
"One point from the game was good for us yet I think in the final part we felt exhausted and our brains weren't obvious to settle on the best choices.
"This can occur. I attempted to change something with the subs. Lucas Moura and [Bryan] Gil [came on], and I chose to change [Sergio] Reguilon in light of the fact that he had a yellow card. I think it was vastly improved thusly yet we didn't track down the answer for the score. We scored – and yet, they chose to prohibit the objective.
"They were awesome, they protected well overall, and to observe space was difficult. And yet, we can improve and move the ball all the more rapidly.
"I think to play following two days – 48 hours – is difficult for each group and I think I've seen a touch of weariness in my players."For this explanation, we settled on at times bad choices in the last pass or with [our] wrapping up. We can improve yet I know very well it's difficult to play following 48 hours of the past game.
"I believe we're frustrated on the grounds that clearly the circumstance we expected to take advantage of is obviously superior to we did. It's alright, it's a draw, I think the players and I should be baffled since it was a major chance to dominate the match against a group that is hard to play. They play unequivocally, actually, and assuming that you don't have a similar power you hazard losing the game.
"My requests are exceptionally high as I'm accustomed to playing to be cutthroat and to win, and without a doubt for me, there's a major dissatisfaction that we didn't win. However, I comprehend the circumstance now and we are to work a great deal since it will not be not difficult to battle for something this season. We expected to work on a ton."
Indeed, even with the advantage of replays, Kane looked onside when gathering Harry Winks' pass prior to scoring, while Forster seemed to have as of now spilled across before contract from Doherty. Conte demanded Kane score two times yet declined to straightforwardly censure the authorities.
"I think Harry scored two times," the Italian said. "A punishment and the subsequent objective. I would rather not remark on the arbitrator's or alternately VAR's choices. They're there to attempt to give a valiant effort and we trust each time that they settle on the best choices."
