'Our confidence was on the floor' - Pochettino blames Bayern battering for poor form as VAR goal rescues Spurs

The Argentine pointed out that his team haven't suffered a defeat such as the 7-2 before and admits they are still recovering from the humbling

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino suggested that his charges were still feeling the effects of a bruising defeat against Bayern Munich after they rescued a VAR-assisted draw late on against Watford on Saturday.

Coming off a 7-2 thrashing at the hands of the Bundesliga giants and also falling 3-0 to Brighton, the international break was very much welcome for Spurs.

But any hopes that they would come back from the recess refreshed were banished just six minutes in when Abdoulaye Doucoure fired Watford into the lead.
