Group B
Everyone knows that it takes time to adapt to the UEFA Champions League and for Tottenham Hotspur, it is proving a painful experience. Last season they had the mighty Juventus on the ropes in the RO16 but despite an inspiring 2-2 draw away to Turin in the first leg and an early 1-0 lead at home until the hour mark, they threw it away.
They said that they had learned their lesson the hard way but this season is the same story as they have surrendered leads at the San Siro and PSV Eindhoven and Pochettino admitted in disdain after the 2-2 draw against PSV that Spurs’ hopes of progressing to the knockout rounds are “nearly over”. This is Tottenham’s third consecutive term in Europe’s premier competition but it looks as if they have taken a step back rather than one forward.
Barcelona are cruising as expected and shipped off the side from Italy even after club talisman Lionel Messi was ruled out of the game after he fractured his arm.
Barcelona and Inter will qualify in all probability unless a miracle takes place in Spurs' favour.
