This latest loss to Barcelona means Tottenham have now lost both of their opening group games in a European competition for the first time in the history and the result leaves them in dire straits as far as Group B is concerned.

Mauricio Pochettino's men are yet to open their account this season and are already playing catch up to both Barcelona and Inter, who are level on points after winning both their games so far in the competition. The north London outfit are in desperate need of results to try and boost their credentials for qualifying to the knockout stages and it is safe to say that they will have their task cut out if they are to achieve the same.

Tottenham will face PSV Eindhoven in their next game in the Champions League and nothing short of a win will keep them alive in the competition considering the fact that they already have plenty of ground to catch up.
