'The Wembley pitch was s***!' - Van Bommel frustrated after Spurs defeat

The Dutch manager wasn't happy with field conditions, although he didn't blame them for his team's defeat in the Champions League

PSV Eindhoven boss Mark van Bommel hit out at Wembley Stadium, calling Tuesday's pitch "s***" while also refusing to blame the conditions for his team's 2-1 Champions League defeat to Tottenham.

The Dutch side struck early through Luuk de Jong's second-minute goal, but a pair of late finishes from Harry Kane sealed the win for Spurs.

On Monday, the pitch passed pre-match inspections, but was not up to Van Bommel's liking as he called the field "outright disturbing".
