Image for Tottenham Hotspur: Spurs fans discuss Champions League quarter-final

Spurs fans on Twitter have been reacting to some footage of Raheem Sterling’s disallowed injury-time goal from the Champions League quarter-final against Manchester City last season. 

The English forward thought he had completed his hat-trick to send Pep Guardiola’s side through to the semi-finals after a crazy game at the Etihad Stadium, but fortunately for Lilywhites supporters, the goal was disallowed due to a VAR offside call. Mauricio Pochettino’s side would then, of course, progress past Ajax in the semi-final tie, before losing out to Liverpool 2-0 in the final in Madrid.

What do we think?

Spurs’ run to the Champions League final last season really was extraordinary when you consider their second-leg games against Manchester City and Ajax, with the footage really demonstrating how many emotions a football fan can go through watching their team.
