Tottenham prepare to face Sporting Lisbon as both look to maintain winning starts

Tottenham Hotspur were stunned by two late Sporting Lisbon goals in the Champions League as Antonio Conte’s side fell to their first defeat of the season.

Spurs were holding on for a point in Lisbon when Paulinho rose to meet a corner in the 89th minute. It was followed moments later by a wonderful solo goal from Arthur as the Premier League side fell apart.

Tottenham had failed to test the Sporting goalkeeper Antonio Adan throughout the match. Richarlison had a goal disallowed for offside while after the break Ivan Perisic flashed a dangerous ball across the face before Richarlison headed substitute Dejan Kulusevski’s delivery wide.

Hugo Lloris made a fingertip save just moments before Sporting took the lead, while Marcus Edwards almost scored against his former club after a brilliant run through the defence shortly before half time.

The result leaves Sporting on top of Group D with six points while Tottenham remain on three points following their opening win over Marseille. Coverage tonight continues with Bayern Munich vs Barcelona

Bayern 2-0 Barcelona

72 mins: Frenkie de Jong and Ferran Torres are also on for Barcelona as the visitors look to regain the momentum in this match. Gavi and Raphinha are the two men who’ve gone off.

Bayern 2-0 Barcelona

69 mins: Serge Gnabry is brought on to replace Sadio Mane for Bayern Munich. Mane hasn’t had the best of nights for the German side and looks a bit disappointed as he heads off the pitch.

Xavi makes a substitution too. Andreas Christensen is replaced with Eric Garcia.

Bayern 2-0 Barcelona

66 mins: Dembele collects the ball on the right side, shifts inside of one defender, takes the ball around another and carries it into the box. It’s brilliant footwork from the forward but as he looks up to pick out a pass, Upamecano arrives and dispossesses him.

Upamecano has had a beltin’ night so far. He’s been a force in Bayern’s defence tonight.

Bayern 2-0 Barcelona

63 mins: How has he missed?! Pedri weaves and skips his way into the box from the left before setting up a give-and-go to get in behind the Bayern back line.

It works and Pedri just has Manuel Neuer to beat. He attempts to flick it over the goalkeeper in an effort to pick out the bottom corner but the ball hits the post and bounces away!

Bayern 2-0 Barcelona

60 mins: Close! Bayern Munich are a totally different team now. There is no fear there. No thought of getting hit on the counter or conceding a goal.

Everything is focused on adding to their lead. Jamal Musiala makes another brilliant run down the inside right channel and decides to go for it on his own, hooking a left-footed effort wide of the right-hand post.

Bayern 2-0 Barcelona

57 mins: Barcelona coach, Xavi, has some thinking to do. He needs to change things up now as Bayern have got Barcelona on the back foot.

Lewandowski has his pocket picked by Upamecano who feeds the ball into midfield. The Bayern defender has had a strong night against his old team mate.

GOAL! Bayern 2-0 Barcelona (Sane, 54’)⚽️

54 mins: They’ve got their second goal! Jamal Musiala receives the ball on the right side and drives inside with Leroy Sane alongside him. He slots the ball about five yards in front of Sane but it’s a perfect pass for the forward to run onto.

He brings it through the middle of the centre-backs, heads into the box then flicks it over the outstretched leg of Ter Stegen to double Bayern’s lead.

Bayern 1-0 Barcelona

53 mins: You’d have to say that Bayern Munich have been second best tonight but that goal has ignited a spark in the home side. They’re flooding forward with confidence and want to get a second goal.

GOAL! Bayern 1-0 Barcelona (Hernandez. 50’)⚽️

50 mins: Bayern have the opener! The home side win a corner that Joshua Kimmich swings perfectly into the box. Lucas Hernandez is being marked by Marcos Alonso but he loses the left-back, sprints towards the ball then leaps across Marc-Andre ter Stegen to guide his header into the back of the net.

Bayern 0-0 Barcelona

48 mins: Sergio Busquets is shown a yellow card for a foul on Jamal Musiala. Barcelona recover the ball and Lewandowski flicks the ball up to Dembele.

Dembele dinks it over to the right wing where Raphinha collects the ball and fizzes one into the box but can’t pick out a team mate.
