If this happen can the 4 teams play at Wembley? It’s home affair.

i think if spurs win the CL, their coach will be in high demand.
with no players signed for 2 transfer windows, they still managed to do very well

Was listening to the ESPN pundits post game analyse of the game, esp Steve Nicol (we know which team he supported and supports). Not much credit to Spurs given for their never say die fight till the end, but he was focusing mainly on the negatives of Ajax youth and naivety. Whilst he may be partially right, I believe Spurs deserve all the credit for their very famous victory too.
To be 3-0 down and facing elimination, the players never hang their heads down but fought on. totally the opposite when Barcelona were 3-0 down, all their superstars were shaking their heads and looking resigned.
(A great lesson for all Manchester United players to learn)

Actually Spurs, Liverpool and Man City teams are similar in terms of attitude. Play to win and fight till the last minute.

The only way to win was to score 3 goals and they did...wow
True, they kept on fighting. But Ajax is not Barcelona

Ajax is naive ....... even though Spurs deserve all the plaudits for their attitude


5 mins of injury time to be added

at 93 mins ..... Ajax got the ball, they counter attacked .... Hakim Ziyech brought it on to his favoured left foot, took a shot .... Lloris saved ....
Another team would have brought the ball to the corner flag and wait for the stadium to erupt .... but no he chooses to push for another goal

The ball was parried out and this time, it dropped to Dusan Tadic ..... again another team will bring the ball to the corner flag and wait for the stadium to erupt ......
again no, Dusan Tadic opted to shoot .... wide



Giving Spurs a last chance to attack ....

and Spurs duly oblige ..... 90 mins + 5 mins ..... goal ...
