Group B – Late Moura goal in Nou Camp ensures unlikely qualification for Spurs
In Group B, Tottenham needed to match the Inter Milan result at the very least to qualify, however they were away to Barcelona while Inter were at home to last placed PSV Eindhoven.
Ousmane Dembélé put Barcelona ahead early against Spurs to give Inter the initial advantage. Shortly after Dembélé’s opener in Catalonia however, Mexico’s Hirving Lozano brilliantly headed home a shock goal for PSV in Milan which put Mauricio Pochettino’s men back in a notional third place.
Kwadwo Asamoah continued to cause PSV problems down Inter’s left even tormenting the Dutch hero of their 2-0 win over France Denzel Dumfries who defended well all night. Jeroen Zoet produced an excellent save to deny Mauro Icardi at the very start of the second half, and several more saves to frustrate Inter.
Internazionale finally levelled when a long, looping cross from Matteo Politano on the right found Icardi who headed home his fourth of the competition from close-in.
The equaliser put Inter up to second ahead of Spurs who were still trialing in Barcelona, but their world came crashing down with the news that
Lucas Moura had scored an 85th minute leveler for Tottenham at the Nou Camp.
1. Barcelona 14
2. Tottenham 8
3. Inter Milan 8
4. PSV Eindhoven 2
