Kyle Walker-Peters was a surprise inclusion to the side at right-back, and made a nightmare start as he gave the ball away cheaply in midfield after just seven minutes.Ousmane Dembele took the ball from his own half and showed great skill and composure to convert past France colleague Hugo Lloris.Although Philippe Coutinho hit the post, the Premier League side deserved a goal for their brave play, really taking the game to the Spanish side.Inter could only draw 1-1 with PSV Eindhoven at the Nou Camp, meaning Spurs will go marching on in the Champions League.

Star man – Danny Rose

Spurs, who had to match Inter Milan’s result against PSV, were heading out of the competition and into the Europa League for the second time in three seasons after Dembele’s goal.They needed their big characters to step up and deliver when it mattered – including at the back.Rose drove forward all evening down the left hand side4

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Rose asserted himself in the game with a number of particularly meaty challenges.His will and determination to drive at the Barca defence down the left clearly inspired his side too.

Moment of the match

With the hosts still leading and Inter Milan also one up in Italy, Spurs knew a second goal would end their Champions League hopes for good.Having already hit the post, Coutinho weaved his magic through the bewildered defence yet again down the left.Coutinho was a menace all night to Spurs4
