Tottenham secured a 2-0 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Thomas Frank’s side needed the three points in order to qualify for the Round of 16 of Europe’s elite club competition and they did just that.
Randal Kolo Muani and Dominic Solanke scored in the second half to ensure that Tottenham secured a famous away win in Europe.
Randal Kolo Muani has three goals in three Champions League starts this season…
What should Tottenham do with him? 🤔
Xavi Simons shines despite goal being disallowed
Xavi Simons appeared to have put Spurs in the lead in the first half, but his goal was chalked off.
While Kolo Muani’s ball to him was perfect and he was not in an offside position while receiving the pass, Destiny Udogie interfered with the play from an offside position, and that is why the goal was disallowed.
However, the Dutchman did not let that bother him and proved to be a constant thorn in the opponent’s side all game.

He constantly made things happen on the left wing and combined well with players around him, picking them out with inch-perfect passes.
According to Sofascore, he made four key passes all game and was undoubtedly the best player on the pitch.
The 22-year-old also completed all three of his attempted dribbles and did not appear to put a foot wrong all game.
Djed Spence has a disappointing outing for Tottenham
Few players were below their best on Wednesday night; Djed Spence was one of them.
The right-back struggled defensively and, for the majority of the time, appeared to struggle to deal with Ansgar Knauff and Nathaniel Brown.
Even while going forward, his decision-making was suspect as he often made an overlap when he should have made an underlap and vice versa.
For a player who is yet to nail down a place in the starting eleven, these are not the kinds of performances that would go a long way towards achieving that.
Frank surely will have been let down by the 25-year-old’s performance in Germany.
