Sissoko unaware of Spurs' VAR-assisted progress after post-Sterling dressing room sulk

Moussa Sissoko says he did not realise Tottenham had qualified for the Champions League semi-finals at Manchester City's expense.

Raheem Sterling thought he had completed his hat-trick in added time to send City through 5-4 on aggregate, but the goal was dramatically ruled out for offside.

Christian Eriksen gave the ball away in his own half but Bernardo Silva touched the ball on to Sergio Aguero, meaning the forward was offside before squaring to Sterling.
