Tottenham smash Real Madrid: Glorious player ratings for Spurs
Tottenham played Real Madrid off the pitch
This may seem strange to say, but Tottenham have the right to feel a little disappointed about the final scoreline of their 3-1 victory over Real Madrid. Spurs could have easily beaten the La Liga giants by a more decisive margin.
Something tells me Mauricio Pochettino won’t be concerned with the final tally. The Argentine gaffer will be pleased that his squad played so well in such a massive fixture. Real Madrid are, after all, the defending champions of Europe.
Zinedine Zidane’s squad certainly didn’t look like it at Wembley. Instead, Tottenham grabbed hold of the match in the opening moments and never really looked back. Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal late in the second half likely made more than a few Spurs fans nervous, but the squad didn’t show it.
As you might guess, the player ratings for this match are going to be pretty flattering for Spurs. Read on to discover which of Pochettino’s men really stood out in the massive defeat over Real Madrid.
