Tottenham are aiming to do the near-impossible when they take on Atletico Madrid this evening.
Igor Tudor’s side find themselves 5-2 down on aggregate after their first-leg humbling at the Estadio Metropolitano last week.

The first half was particularly devastating, with stand-in goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky - curiously selected ahead of Guglielmo Vicario - making two decisive errors for two of Atleti’s goals, and he was swiftly replaced by the first-choice shot-stopper after just 17 minutes.
Spurs went in 4-1 down at the interval, after Robin Le Normand had scrambled in a fourth and Pedro Porro had struck back, but they ended the evening with a three-goal deficit to take back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after Julian Alvarez’s second of the game.
Tudor’s men showed some fight as they snatched an unlikely point at Anfield over the weekend, as Richarlison netted a late equaliser.
Atletico, meanwhile, scraped past 10-man Getafe as they returned to La Liga action, with Nahuel Molina notching the winner on eight minutes in Madrid.
