Champions League: Tottenham secure Europa spot, Real Madrid finish 2nd in the group

Tottenham booked a place in the Europa League knock-out stage after they registered a convincing 3-1 win over CSKA Moscow in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The visitors took the lead in the 33rd minute through Alan Dzagoev who scored from a headed flick-on from Zoran Tosic.

Spurs restored parity shortly afterwards through Dele Alli, and Harry Kane finished a stylish move to put the home side in front before half time.

An error from CSKA keeper Igor Akinfeev gave Spurs a two-goal lead when he guided Alli’s header into his own net.
