Spurs suffer UCL defeat to Leverkusen in another Wembley misstep

LONDON -- Three points from Tottenham's 1-0 loss to Bayer Leverkusen at Wembley Stadium in the Champions League.

1. Spurs desperately poor in loss at Wembley

The dire record of English clubs playing Champions League games at Wembley continues. After Arsenal's failed experiment in the late 1990s, Tottenham have now lost their opening two European games at the stadium after Bayer Leverkusen edged them out on Wednesday night.

A second-half goal from Kevin Kampl was enough for the German side to claim a 1-0 win, and perhaps the most galling thing for Mauricio Pochettino was that Leverkusen didn't have to be anything beyond solid.
