Tottenham will have to do it in a difficult way if they want to move forward in the semifinals of Europa League and alleviate the pressure on the postcoglou head, after having managed to beat Eintracht Frankfurt tonight.
Spurs caught most of an entertaining found after falling back with Ekitike’s huge goal, but a combination of bad luck, poor finished and impressive Kaua Santos goalkeeper means that the Bundesliga side is in the driving seat before returning to Germany next week.
The postcoglou men found an equalizer through the later size of Pedro Porro after 26 minutes, but could not win it despite a second half in which they hit the carpentry twice.

The crowd fired and apparently ready to put his frustrations with postcoglou and President Daniel Levy on one side, back behind his side from the outside.
However, the noise was soon evaporated, the Eintracht section is blocking the corner, when the visitors went in front of the first attack.
James Maddison lost possession and the ball moved quickly to Ekitike, who cut off the left and dragged a precise shot in the lower right corner.
The Spurs seemed like Shellshocked, but according to their credit, they found a foot in the game, thanks in a small part for Eintracht’s willingness to give up possession.
Their efforts were of no quality until they conjured a equalum because of the determination of the Dominican striker Solanke.
Solanke pursued a lost cause and won possession, fed James Maddison and his Baixa cross was magnificently converted by Porro with the heel.
A great cross of Maddison, an even better finish of Pedro Porro sees that the Spurs are level! 🤩

Eintracht settled with sitting and playing on the counter, and was a tactic that almost got rewards for the scarce of half the time, Ekitike found space again, but this time its shot had no power.
The Bundesliga side again threatened five minutes after the restart with Jean-Matteo Bahoya’s workspace on the area. He should have shot, but tried to square him to a teammate and lost his chance.
Spurs came again and approached to score three times in two frantic minutes.
First Lucas Bergvall kicked a shot on the stick and bar with a car from 25 meters before the goalkeeper of Eintracht, Santos, produced an excellent savings to avoid the curling effort of the son Heck-Min.
Spurs fans had barely returned to their seats when, from the resulting side, Rodrigo Bentancur’s intermittent header returned from the carpentry.
Santos emphasized again approaching the early mark with a good savings to deny Maddison from close.
At the other end, Bahoya was hooked from the nearby range, but it was a rare foray for Eintracht and Spurs returned to ancestry.
In fact, they could have taken the winner with seven minutes. The Djed Spence substitute had an immediate impact, loading on the left and choosing Brennan Johnson with his cross only for the Wales International to contact the opportunity and exploded on the bar.
Spurs had one last chance on death. Bentancur nodged with the free launch of the Micky Van Ven, but the head of the International of the Netherlands was magnificently kept by Santos.
