Thomas Frank press conference LIVE - Tottenham boss on Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall and Kolo Muani

6 hours ago 4

Thomas Frank is holding his press conference following Tottenham's 5-3 defeat at Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Spurs opened the scoring with a well-executed team goal on 35 minutes. Lucas Bergvall sent Archie Gray into the box and his chipped cross to the back post found Randal Kolo Muani, currently on loan from PSG, and the Frenchman headed it across for Richarlison to nod home.

PSG undid all of Spurs' fine first half work in added time at the end of the first half when a short corner move ended with a rocket from the edge of the box from Vitinha, which flew off the underside of the crossbar and into the net.

Undeterred, the visitors regained the lead five minutes into the second half. Pedro Porro launched a deep corner which Richarlison headed into the path of Gray. The teenager's flicked effort was headed on to the crossbar by a PSG defender on the line and bounced out for Kolo Muani to smash home a powerful volley.

The lead lasted just three minutes thanks to that man Vitinha. The Portuguese midfielder cut inside from the right and curled a strike into the far corner, this time with his left foot.

Tottenham then handed PSG the momentum in the 59th minute. A dangerous pass out from captain Cristian Romero led to Pape Matar Sarr being caught in possession and Joao Neves picked out Ruiz to sweep home in an empty box. Six minutes later, a scramble in the box from a corner ended with Pacho nipping in ahead of Sarr to poke the loose ball into the net.

Spurs were not down yet though. Rodrigo Bentancur robbed Vitinha in the PSG half and the ball broke to Kolo Muani, who ran on and smashed home a second goal against his employers.

More drama followed though as Vitinha's shot hit Romero's outstretched arm in the box and with 14 minutes to go the Portuguese rifled home the resulting penalty to complete his treble and bury Tottenham's comeback hopes. There was still time for a red card for the hosts in added time as Lucas Hernandez flicked out an elbow into former PSG man Xavi Simons' face.
