Hart apologises for 'Job Done' post on Instagram after Tottenham beaten by Dinamo Zagreb in Europa League

Tottenham goalkeeper Joe Hart has apologised for a celebratory message saying 'Job Done' which appeared on his Instagram page - after Spurs were knocked out of the Europa League.

The triumphant message appeared on Hart's social media, even accompanied by the 3-0 scoreline which signalled Spurs' elimination. It was swiftly deleted, and on Friday morning the former England goalkeeper posted an apology video.

The Spurs number two said that a member of his social media team had thought the London club had won 3-0 rather than been beaten after extra time, that the mistake was accidental and that he was sorry for the loss and for the subsequent anger caused by the ill-advised graphic.
