• Spurs take 3-0 lead into Champions League last-16 tie
Mauricio Pochettino has complained bitterly about Tottenham’s lack of preparation time for their Champions League second leg at Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night. As was the case before the first leg at Wembley, which Spurs won 3-0, the Bundesliga leaders have been afforded an extra day.
Spurs drew 1-1 with Arsenal at Wembley in the Premier League at lunchtime on Saturday, with Dortmund having been permitted to play at Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Friday night, where they lost 2-1.
