GOAL FLASH! Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Bayern Munich

Brian Jeeves

(12′ mins): On an electric night in north London, it was Bayern who threatened first – Serge Gnabry’s stinging strike beaten away by Hugo Lloris. Spurs responded, but German stopper, Manuel Neuer, twice blocking from Heung-Min Son as the South Korean sprung free and looked set to open the scoring.

But it was a case of third time lucky for Son. Moussa Sissoko seized on some unusually poor defending, before sending the Spurs number seven clear. This time he fired across Neuer – the explosion of noise letting the entire neighbourhood know that the hosts were a goal to the good.
