There was clearly something with the pitch the Atletico players where slipping as well do mostly when trying to shoot rather than defending
Terrible call. They were outplayed all game. Almost snuck a win to on their typical set piece at the end.
Dumb to go to ground, ever, in the area though. Putting yourself in a position to have a ref make a bad call
Champions League delivers. Exciting games, crazy scores, player madness... I hope we play Bodø/Glimt in the final.
https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...rs-but-future-in-doubt-beyond-liverpool-match Igor Tudor will fight on with Tottenham against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday in a desperate bid for any positivity before the relegation six‑pointer at home against Nottingham Forest the following week. The interim manager, who is under contract until the end of the season, is not expected to last that long as his tenure lurches from one horror performance to the next, the latest being the 5-2 defeat at Atlético Madrid in the Champions League last‑16 first leg on Tuesday. That made it four defeats out of four since Tudor took over from Thomas Frank; the first three were in the Premier League where Spurs are 16th, one point and two places above the relegation zone. Forest are 17th. Spurs have let in 14 goals under Tudor and were 4-0 down after 22 minutes at Atlético. Tudor’s approach in general has been to work the players incredibly hard in training, believing they are not fit enough, and reinforce high standards when it comes to discipline and commitment to the cause. The way that he has cracked the whip, which also takes in the tone of his messaging, has not been effective. Tottenham are keeping an eye on the market in the event they have to sack Tudor, but they are conscious it was limited when they dismissed Frank on 11 February and nothing has changed since. Big names were linked and none of them fancied the job at that moment. Nothing has changed and it has left Tudor to look ahead to Anfield, where Spurs have four draws and no wins in 15 years.
Chelsea lose! Villa play Utd tomorrow so one or both of those will drop points. We must win vs Spurs.
