Tottenham fans are extremely worried about Brennan Johnson after footage of his post-match reaction emerged online following his winner against Coventry City.

Johnson, who started his side’s defeat to Arsenal last weekend, was resigned to a spot on the bench against Coventry in the Carabao Cup.

After the North London derby defeat, the 23-year-old deactivated his Instagram account because of criticism in wake of his performance.

But the star forward redeemed himself on Wednesday as he scored a dramatic winner to send Spurs to the next round of the competition.

Rodrigo Bentancur slid in Johnson, who made no mistake in front of goal, rounding off the move with a cool finish.

Despite the last-minute goal, he barely celebrated and he had a similar reaction after the result.

Son Heung-min led him to the away end, but the player seemed hesitant to applaud the fans inside the Coventry Building Society Arena.

Needless to say, his post-match reaction got people online talking.

One X user wrote: “His body language says he’s angry with the fans. He’s right to be angry.”

A second tweeted: “Brennan has really gotten unjust hate. He had a good season last year, and is having a slow start. Give the kid a break.”

A third added: “This is sad this, looks absolutely petrified of his own club’s fans.”

Ange Postecoglou condemned the social media abuse and backed Johnson to thrive at Spurs.

“I hate how we’ve just normalised all that stuff,” he said.

“I’ve been around long enough and even when I was playing, I copped a fair bit. But it was usually on the terraces and then the game was over and you’d go home.

“You’re talking about a young guy who is probably lacking a bit of confidence at the moment. Things haven’t gone his way.

“But he comes here every day, he’s working his backside off, he’s asking for feedback, he’s doing everything right, he’s trying so hard to become the player he wants to be. It’s hurting him a lot.

“It’s not like he’s out on the town and he doesn’t care and he rolls up late. So what’s his crime? His crime is he isn’t performing at the level that people expect of him.”
