Martin Keown slams Tottenham's woeful first-half display against LASK, claiming stars were 'looking ahead to the weekend' and didn't want to play in Europa League tie

Martin Keown has slammed Tottenham's first half performance against LASK, as the former Arsenal defender accused the side of looking ahead to the north London derby this weekend.

Spurs travelled to Austria needing a point to seal qualification from their Europa League group, but looked well off the pace in the opening stanza against their rivals.

And when Peter Michorl opened the scoring with a fine effort from range, few could claim that Jose Mourinho's side were unfortunate to have suffered the setback.
