Tottenham most likely Champions League round of 16 opponents revealed amid PSG and Inter threat

Tottenham secured their place in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 after qualifying as Group D winners.

Antonio Conte watched from the stands in Marseille as his side claimed a dramatic comeback win against the Ligue 1 outfit with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg scoring the winner with the last kick of the game. Chancel Mbemba had opened the scoring for the hosts on the stroke of half-time with a powerful header past Hugo Lloris.

Barcelona loanee Clement Lenglet equalised for the Lilywhites in the second half with a header of his own from a brilliant Ivan Perisic free-kick. Son Heung-min's injury threatened Spurs' chances of winning the game, but Harry Kane was able to play through Hojbjerg to fire the ball past Pau Lopez in injury time to send Tottenham into the last 16.
