Tottenham fans bamboozled by Mauricio Pochettino’s post match comments after Inter Milan defeat

Tottenham started their 2018-19 Champions League campaign on a disappointing note after losing 2-1 against Inter Milan on Tuesday night at San Siro.

Spurs were cruising to victory following a second-half goal from Christian Eriksen, but two late goals from Mauro Icardi and Matias Vecino stunned the visitors as Inter secured a dramatic win.

With this defeat, Spurs have now lost three games in a row for the first time under Mauricio Pochettino.

Spurs managed 54% of possession and attempted 11 shots during the game. However, it was the same flaw – defending set-pieces that led to yet another defeat for the north London club.
