PSV defender Nick Viergever saved Tottenham’s Champions League campaign with heroic last-minute tackle
Tottenham owe a huge debt of gratitude to PSV defenderNick Viergever after his heroic last-minute challenge prevented Inter Milan from scoring a winner in their 1-1 draw.Spurs progressed to the Champions League knockout stages after matching Inter’s result with a 1-1 draw in Barcelona.2

Mauro Icardi appeared to be clean through in the last minute at the San Siro

However, a late Inter winner would’ve sent Spurs out of the competition, and the Italians so nearly found it in the last minute of stoppage time.Mauro Icardi, who had earlier cancelled out PSV’s opener, was just about to pull the trigger when Viergever denied him with an unbelievable last-ditch challenge.

“Tottenham fans, get yourself out and buy a Viergever shirt,” the commentator said.Moments later, the footballing Gods shined on Spurs once again asLautaro Martinez sent a free header over the bar from just a few yards out.2

Moura’s goal was enough thanks to PSV’s heroics

PSV were guaranteed to finish bottom of Group B before the match started, but that didn’t prevent their bodies-on-the-line mentality at the San Siro.And the Dutch club’s heroics meant that Lucas Moura’s 85th-minute equaliser in Barcelona was enough to send Tottenham through to the last 16 of the competition.It completed a miraculous escape for Mauricio Pochettino’s men, who collected just one point from their opening three games.
