PSG 5-3 Tottenham: Spurs throw away two leads in topsy-turvy Champions League thriller | OneFootball

Thomas Frank’s side were looking to make amends for the weekend’s poor performance

Spurs were out for revenge on the current European champions, who beat them in August’s UEFA Super Cup on penalties.

The visitors were pegged back almost immediately as they were caught out by a short corner, and Vitinha thundered home from range via the crossbar.

The north Londoners regained the advantage when Kolo Muani notched the second, with Pedro Porro’s deep corner kept alive by Richarlison and Gray, before the striker lashed home on 50 minutes.

Vitinha was at it once more as he bent home a beauty just a minute and a half later to level, and an error from Cristian Romero and Pape Matar Sarr allowed Fabian Ruiz to turn the game on its head in a quickfire double salvo for Paris.

It was four not long after as William Pacho seized upon some sloppy Spurs defending from a corner to scramble home, but Kolo Muani lashed home a third with 18 minutes to play after Vitinha was robbed by Rodrigo Bentancur.

Any lingering hope Spurs had of a famous comeback was quickly dashed as Romero was penalised for a handball on the slide, and Vitinha stepped up to convert from 18 yards to seal not just his hat-trick, but a crucial victory for Luis Enrique’s holders after their disappointing defeat by Bayern Munich last time out.
