Tottenham 3-1 Bodo/Glimt: Spurs put down Europa League statement with crucial semi-final first leg win
Tottenham produced a mature Europa League semi-final first leg performance against Bodo/Glimt, in the process taking a giant step towards the final.
In the knowledge that next week’s decider will be played on the artificial pitch in the Arctic Circle, Spurs knew the importance of a big win in north London on Thursday night.
In his place was Yves Bissouma. The midfielder was one of two rather surprising inclusions in the Tottenham made by Ange Postecoglou. Though, his other gamble paid off within seconds of the tie getting underway.
