Conte also ranks owners Perisic and Bentancur, in defense there is the former Atalantino Romero. The first half is balanced: Lloris saves on Goncalves, the Spurs do not force the play and rely on Richarlison’s flashes. In the recovery, Sporting close to the advantage, thanks to a personal action by Edwards who dribbled four opponents, triangulated with Trincao and kicks on goal. Lloris tells him no, he is still 0-0 at half-time. At the beginning of the second half, Tottenham seems to be completely different: Emerson and Perisic show up in the penalty area, Adan blocks two shots from the Brazilian and one from Kane. Sporting found courage after the 60 ‘, the guests crushed but Conte didn’t fit in and tried to make a turn with Kulusevski. The move seems to be spot on, but in the end the hosts win.

Tottenham goes into a trance, Arthur Gomes enters Sporting who, after a few seconds, signs the doubling. The Brazilian starts from the left, dodges two defenders and overtakes Lloris for the final 2-0.

Sanchez striker, Gerson and Veretout in the middle, Pau Lopez in goal and Under on the bench: Marseille challenges the Europa League champions by focusing on old acquaintances from Serie A.
