Spurs have been the better side for most of these game. Lack of experience of how to play yourself into an away game has cost them dearly.
 
Obligatory Lukaka would have scored that.

Juventus don't exactly look solid. Definitely a goal or two here for Spurs.
 
Spurs actually the better team, an away goal will turn this tie.

The problem is that spurs, as a club, lack the spirit, aura and gravitas to make an impact in CL knockout football against the big boys - even if they get an away goal they'll Spurs it up and then pat themselves on the back for "putting the pressure on"
 
They don't?

They defended a simple set piece miserably and fouled a Juve player in their penalty box. How else would a team deserve to be two goals down?
By being completely dominated. That hasn't been the case.
 
Commentators praise of Buffons save, when in reality it was just a awful header from Kane.
 
"Full of" ? Are you for real ?

Oh sorry. English is not my first language. I though t if you said so it didnt mean literally "full full of" something.

You know... this place is actually full of ppl with knee jerk reactions and who create some incredible knee jerk threads, dont you think?
 
This game is absolutely brilliant.

feckin love the champions league.
 
Spurs actually the better team, an away goal will turn this tie.

Better side?!? They are 2-0 down, Juventus don’t have to charge this game anymore. They will be looking for counters and save energy, classic case. If Spurs were 2-0 up, Juve would be having 90% possession right now
 
I'm watching JUve-spuds but hearing that Basel had a breakaway and a penalty taken wrongfully away.. Somehow it doesn't surprise..
 
Spurs just flapped it at the start and gave away a cheap set piece goal that rocked them for 10 minutes . They was good enough to be winning this tie.
I think they are more than capable of winning at home, but they shat themselves in the first 10 mins here and it may cost them.
 
Higuain completely sold Vertonghen there :lol:
 
Eriksen taking over now and getting on the ball in the middle. What a pass and what a miss from Kane.
 
What a start to the KO rounds. Very good game so far.
 
End to end, cracking game
The problem is that spurs, as a club, lack the spirit, aura and gravitas to make an impact in CL knockout football against the big boys - even if they get an away goal they'll Spurs it up and then pat themselves on the back for "putting the pressure on"

Really? Think about that and get back to me.
 
That would have been a lovely goal.
