DOM BUSTER

Solanke's Eintracht mind from spot

- From RYAN TAYLOR in Frankfurt

But when Ange Postecoglou promised to fight “tooth and nail” for a place in the Europa League semi-finals in Wednesday evening’s press conference, he was undoubtedly true to his word here.

This would have been his final act as Spurs boss, it the Aussie will deliver to live to fight another day after executing a masterful European away performance to provide a timely reminder of his managerial qualities.

Having tasted defeat a staggering 21 times in all competitions this season, his unpredictable strugglers looked destined to fold amid the hostility of one of the continents most ferocious atmospheres. However it only spurred Tottenham on as Dominic Solanke put a first-half winner from the penalty spot.
