Mura weren’t even formed the last time Tottenham tasted silverware. Spurs now head into their final Group G game knowing, realistically, only victory over Rennes will keep alive their hopes of progression. It’s nights like this that make you sympathise with Nuno Espirito Santo and his two-tier squad.Ĭertainly Conte will know more about his best team after this.

First, on 11 minutes, he allowed Tomi Horvat to cut inside and curl Mura in front.Īnd then, deep into stoppage time, he allowed Marosa to cut inside before deflecting the ball past Pierluigi Gollini in his own goal.


The wingback was sent off after 31 minutes on his first start since August Sanchez giftwrapped both Mura goals. Tomi Horvat celebrates his early opener after Davinson Sanchez allowed him to cut inside No one did their cause more harm than Davinson Sanchez and Ryan Sessegnon. He added: ‘We have to do better in everything, everything, everything.’ Here’s hoping that message gets through to Dele Alli, Bryan Gil and the other fringe players who wasted this first chance to impress. Where are you now and what do you want in the future.’ It is important in football to have vision. We have to do better at many, many things. ‘I want to be very honest, we have to work a lot and improve in many, many aspects. ‘I am not a magician and after three weeks I have found players that want to work and have great commitment but sometimes it is not enough,’ he said. So for them, Amadej Marosa’s goal – with the last kick of this game – secured an unforgettable triumph.Īs for the bubble of optimism that greeted Conte’s arrival in north London? Statistically the worst side in the whole thing - comparable in quality to Accrington Stanley, apparently. A side without a point in Europe’s third-rate competition before Thursday night. A club only founded in 2012, a team whose ground was deemed unfit to host this game. The concern for Conte? After handing out famous wins to Pacos de Ferreira and Vitesse Arnhem, this embarrassment tops the lot.
