El conjunto londinense necesitó dejar al Lokomotiv Plovdiv con 9 jugadores para dar la vuelta al marcador y pasar la eliminatoria de Europa League.
Menos documental y más fútbol. Eso es lo que pueden estar pensando de forma preocupada ahora los aficionados del Tottenham, que vieron como su club se salvaba de una derrota ridículamente histórica ante el Lokomotiv Plovdiv (1-2) en la fase previa de la Europa League.
Con un once de gala, sin dejar nada para la improvisación, el cuadro de Jose Mourinho ofreció una imagen peor que la de la primera jornada de la Premier League, en la que cayó contra el Everton. A pesar de tener el control total del balón, la falta de pegada y verticalidad frente al Plovdiv impidió llegar en ventaja al descanso.
Pero eso no fue lo peor. El conjunto búlgaro, por sorpresa, convirtió en oro su única llegada del partido y marcó mediante Minchev (71’). Le entraron las prisas al Tottenham, que necesitó dejar al equipo con nueve jugadores por las expulsiones de Almeida y Karagaren para empatar de penalti gracias a Kane (80’). Ya con superioridad numérica, Ndombelé salvó la noche aciaga ‘spur’, en la que Dele Alli se ausentó con algunas incógnitas sobre su futuro.
Sin sorpresas con los 'grandes'
No se complicó la vida el vecino del Tottenham. El Rangers hizo lo que no hicieron los ‘spurs’, golear. La víctima de los pupilos de Steven Gerrad fue el Lincoln Red Imps, que recibió una manita que dejó clara la diferencia de nivel (0-5). Tavernier (21’), Goldson (45’), Morelos (67’), Defoe (84’) y Morelos (88’) fueron los autores de los goles.
Tampoco tuvo excesivos problemas el Galatasaray con el Neftchi. A pesar de que Mbodj (46’) igualó el tanto inicial de Diagne (19’), rápidamente Ludinyama puso la ventaja de nuevo (48’) para que Diagne cerrar el marcador poco después (63’).
El Milan, por su parte, no dio opción al Shamrock Rovers irlandés y pasó ronda gracias a los goles de Ibrahimovic (24’) y Çalhanoglu (68’).
