Tottenham were left disappointed in their Europa League tie against Antwerp. They stumbled to a 1 – 0 defeat against the Belgian club.

Despite being the dominant side, the Spurs looked fatigued as they failed to register a shot on target in the entire second half. Their last attempt on goal came in the 19th minute.

Their loss also marks them as the first English clubs to lose in a European club competition this season as Antwerp claim their first win against an English opposition for the first time since 1975.
