Paul Robinson Doesn’t Hold Back on Tottenham After Loss to PSG | OneFootball

PSG recorded a bounce-back UEFA Champions League win over Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday night at the Parc des Princes. It was another come-from-behind victory from the Parisians over Spurs, although not as dramatic as the UEFA Super Cup.

The Premier League club held two different leads over PSG before the home side took the lead and didn’t look back. Richarlison opened the scoring to give Spurs the 1-0 lead, and Randal Kolo Muani handed the London-based club a 2-1 advantage.

Nonetheless, the Ligue 1 side scored three unanswered goals to take a 4-2 lead. Tottenham did cut the deficit to 4-3, but Vitinha added the final goal to complete his hat-trick performance and 5-3 win.

After the game, BBC pundit Paul Robinson didn’t hold back, noting that Tottenham were responsible for their defeat.

“Tottenham were the masters of their own downfall, or at least the start of it, because for an hour they played so well,” Robinson said. “They conceded two goals to Vitinha which were two fantastic strikes, and so if the game finished 2-2 then Thomas Frank could have come away and said, ‘Do you know what, we put on a performance.’

“What I will say is that Tottenham had a different attitude tonight. Their application, their work rate, their pressing, they started higher up the field. There was a lot more to be positive about. Unlike at the weekend Frank can put his finger on things that went wrong tonight rather than scratching his head and thinking he didn’t recognise his team..

PSG will have two Ligue 1 matches before their final Champions League match of 2025, when they travel to face Athletic Club on December 10 at San Mames Stadium.
