Sissoko claims Spurs lucky to have 'unbelievable' Lloris after Aguero penalty save

Moussa Sissoko described Hugo Lloris as an "unbelievable" goalkeeper after his penalty save helped Tottenham to a 1-0 win over Manchester City on Tuesday.

Spurs will take a narrow lead to the Etihad Stadium after Son Heung-min's second-half strike secured a victory in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final.

Sergio Aguero had the chance to open the scoring from the spot after only 13 minutes, but Lloris repelled the City striker's effort with a save to his left.

Sissoko was full of praise for his captain, who was at fault for Liverpool's last-minute winner in the Premier League on March 31, when he palmed Mohamed Salah's header off Toby Alderweireld and into the net.
