Hoffenheim v Tottenham LIVE – UEFA Europa League latest as Ange Postecoglou’s side claim nervy win in Germany

Regardless of where Spurs end up this season, it’s safe to say they’ve been five-star entertainment.

But the win at Hoffenheim will come as a huge boost for a team that has struggled so much at home in recent weeks – you can see the fragility in their game and when they are on the back foot, they are almost sucked in.

But some key performances from their senior players pulled them through tonight and that’s a big positive for Ange Postecoglou’s side.

The hosts couldn’t live with James Maddison in the first half and Son Heung-min showcased his captain’s credentials with two extremely important contributions.

Spurs will want to make it easier on themselves in future outings, but so far they have established themselves in the UEFA Europa League top-eight mix and remain in contention for three trophies this season.
