There were howlers from Hugo and Toby. The Spurs self destruct button was engaged.
In moment of sheer stupidity Hugo Lloris, the Spurs captain, made a wild and rash tackle outside the penalty area injuring a PSV player. It was dangerous play and a clear foul. A foolish foul. He earned a red card, was sent off and Spurs were then under enormous pressure with only ten men. They conceded a goal to a revived home side and now Tottenham look down and out of the Champions League. With performances like this they do not deserve to be there. Dismal and disappointing. What a waste of such a good opportunity to win away! After disaster early on, being a goal down, Tottenham gained control and were doing so well until Lloris's lamentable lunge.
The game in Eindhoven ended in a 2-2 draw. Tottenham Hotspur only have one point from three games. Barcelona and now Inter Milan are expected to progress to the next stage.

Fortunately for Lloris his manager has a short memory, and he will soon forget the howlers!
To Lloris's credit, he has turned in a superb performance last Saturday at Selhurst Park to help Spurs defeat Crystal Palace. Excellent goalkeeping!
