What does it take Tottenham to qualify for Group B?

Tottenham finds himself in a situation not to be missed against Inter Milan, the giant of Serie A, tonight.

Harry Kane's late attack on PSV Eindhoven in the fourth week has allowed his team's hopes to qualify, but the North London team still have a way to go if they want their Champions campaign League continues beyond December.

They are ahead of tonight's opponents by three points before the kick off. Inter's reputation for kings returning from the group is an additional hurdle for Mauricio Pochettino and his team.

The Nerazzurri came back from a goal behind them to ensure victory over the Spurs at San Siro in the first week of play, which earned them to be repeated at PSV in October.

Mauro Icardi added to his record in the Champions League in the last 1-1 draw against Barcelona, ​​Luciano Spalletti's team being behind again.

Even though Tottenham has a small derby affair in north London against Arsenal looming on Sunday, they can not afford another mistake tonight.

Here's what Tottenham needs to qualify for Group B in the UEFA Champions League …

Tottenham must beat Inter Milan at Wembley in the next game to retain a qualifying chance.

If they do, the Londoners will have to improve Inter Milan's results against PSV Eindhoven when they will face Barcelona at Nou Camp in their last group match.

LIVERPOOL NEWS



What Liverpool needs to qualify in Group C

The defeat on Wednesday at the Parc des Princes could be catastrophic for Paris Saint-Germain.

The champions of France find themselves in a precarious position before their penultimate match of group stage of the Champions League, a single point separating the two teams before the countdown.

The Thomas Tuchel players were encouraged by the announcement that Neymar and Kylian Mbappe are both fit for the contest. The two strikers were injured in friendly matches for their respective countries during the recent international break, but they should both make their starting lineup tonight.

Liverpool has conceded only five times in 13 Premier League matches this season, but as many in four games in the Champions League.

For now, their fate is in their hands with their 3-2 win over PSG in the first leg, thus highlighting their European ambitions again this term after their near-miss last season.

Here's what Liverpool needs to qualify in Group C of the UEFA Champions League …

Liverpool will qualify if they beat PSG in Paris. In the event of a tie, the Merseyside team will have to equal or improve the result obtained by PSG in the last match to secure a place in the last 16 games.

If they lose in Paris, Liverpool can still pass if they beat Napoli by more than two goals on the final day of the group stage.

Tottenham vs Inter Milan

Harry Kane and Mauro Icardi would form a fantastic partnership in front of one of the greatest scorers of Italian football.

The two scorers, who have scored seven goals in the Champions League so far this season, will face Wembley tonight as Tottenham take on Inter Milan in a key Group B clash.

The Spurs need a win, plus victory in Barcelona, ​​to have a real chance to progress to the knockout stages.

But they know too well the dangers of Inter and Icardi, having seen a 1-0 lead turn into a 2-1 defeat in the last seven minutes of their San Siro meeting in September.

Kane and Icardi will have a lot to say about the winner of this show tonight, but Filippo Inzaghi, a former Juventus and AC Milan striker, is so difficult to separate the two that it is better to go with them.

"Icardi is a very good forward in the box because he can find his place through deadly moves," Inzaghi told the Sun.

"Kane, thanks to his physical presence, can play in all midfield positions and attack because he has that strength.

"I like it because I feel that he is still inside the game, his spirit helping his teammates a lot."

"I can not choose who is the best between them. For me, they can play together and, as a coach, I would like to train such fantastic players. "
A partnership of Kane and Icardi? Imagine that!



PSG vs Liverpool last

Jurgen Klopp is expected to make only a change to the formation that beat Paris Saint-Germain in September when both sides resumed their rivalry tonight.

An injury to the eye prevented Roberto Firmino from starting this last confrontation. The Brazilian scored the decisive goal in the hosts' 3-2 win at Anfield.

However, it is likely to appear initially at the expense of Daniel Sturridge at the Parc des Princes in an otherwise familiar starting lineup.

That means starting for the trusted trio Jordan Henderson, Gini Wijnaldum and James Milner in the center of the park.

Meanwhile, Joe Gomez will be reinstated at the defense center after missing Dejan Lovren for the weekend win at Watford.

As for the hosts, Thomas Tuchel is considering two surprise changes to his lineup to avoid a defeat that would put an end to PSG hopes of reaching the knockout stages.

Marquinhos was supported to retain the midfielder role he held at Anfield earlier this year at the expense of Adrien Rabiot.

The back Thomas Meunier – who scored during this meeting – should also miss, with Thilo Kehrer being preferred.

Liverpool: Alison, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Milner, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

PSG: Buffon, Kehrer, Kimpembe, Silva, Bernat, Marquinhos, Verratti, Di Maria, Mbappe, Neymar, Cavani.



Pep Guardiola explains why Phil Foden has not started

Pep Guardiola revealed why he had left Phil Foden out of his home group against Lyon, saying he wanted to face all his attackers.

Manchester City booked its place in the knockout stages of the Champions League with a 2-2 draw in France.

Despite the absence of the injured Kevin de Bruyne, Bernardo Silva and Ilkay Gundogan, Guardiola has always named Foden, 18, on the bench.

But explaining his decision, he said that he wanted to overwhelm Lyon by his attack.

Raheem Sterling debuted in the middle of the field, with Sergio Aguero, Leroy Sane and Riyad Mahrez all appointed to the front.

"I chose another player," said Guardiola, about Foden and his pre-match comments on the fact that the teenager was ready to start. "Everyone is ready, but I imagine that playing this game would be difficult.

"Every game, I make mistakes. I came here to show that we wanted to win and I attacked all the attackers we have. "

Maxwel Cornet gave Lyon the lead twice in the second half, but goals from Aymeric Laporte and Aguero allowed City to finish 16th for the sixth year in a row.

Guardiola added, "Being here is a huge success. People say that it is not enough – but we have achieved an incredible feat, amazing for us.

"Now it's time to enjoy it and hope we can arrive in February in the best conditions."



Why did Jose break those bottles of water?

Jose Mourinho said he crushed a series of bottles of water after seeing his team win a victory over the Young Boys.

Marouane Fellaini scored in time to win the victory that allowed United to appear in the Champions League Round of 16 after a frustrating evening against the Swiss champions.

United missed several opportunities. David de Gea again saved his team by a magnificent save in front of the Belgian in the first minute of the injury, which caused a lively Mourinho party.

Explaining what resulted in the incident of the water bottles, the boss of United said: "Relief. Frustration before that and relief with purpose. I think we did not play for that, we did not play for 0-0.

"We did not play until we had trouble until the last minute, so frustration. I was not unhappy with the players. Not at all."

With this victory, United will travel to Valencia for his last group match, his place in the knockout stages of the competition being already assured.

We talk with Goal.com correspondent for PSG Sabrina Belalmi before tonight's game, which said it would be a "scandal" if the Ligue 1 team did not reach the round of 16

Tottenham vs Inter Milan

Mauricio Pochettino Jonathan Veal of the Press Association is looking forward to leading his team to a miraculous escape from his Champions League group.

The Spurs are to beat Inter Milan at Wembley on Wednesday to have a chance to lead their qualifying hopes in the last group match.

Even if they are not part of the Serie A, they will probably still have to go to Barcelona and win to stay in the competition beyond Christmas.

Unsurprisingly, few people give them much luck, which is a music for Pochettino's ears.

"It's a huge motivation," said the boss of Tottenham. "When people say that something is going to be difficult, for me, I am so excited to try to show that it is completely different and that it is possible.

"For me, it's a huge motivation and for us, it's a huge motivation.

"Of course, we have to win both games, but we will try.

"We are sure that we will try to do our best to achieve this."

If Tottenham plays as he did on Saturday against Chelsea, where he destroyed his London rivals, they will then get the first part of their job.

Even though Chelsea were poor, the Spurs were at their best and recorded their most impressive result since their 3-0 win over Manchester United in August.

Pochettino was however happier with the reaction after the match.

"I was so happy after the match that it was a very good win for us," he said. "But the most important thing is to stay humble, I was so disappointed after the Manchester United victory at Old Trafford.

"I remember a lot of players had talked about winning the title, it was only at the beginning and three points like the others.

"I'm happy because learning how to stay humble is the most important thing.Now we have to show tomorrow that we are in a very good way and that we are using Chelsea's performance as an example.

"The most important thing is to talk on the pitch and the attitude we are showing, speak out of the field, of course, but always be humble because you see things differently and you think you are so good. and you do not do it, need to make an effort on the ground. "

Jan Vertonghen will start his first match since September after a thigh injury, while Danny Rose will also be involved in the team after missing seven weeks because of a problem in the groin.

PSG vs Liverpool

Some of the most noble acts of society are in reality those that go unnoticed. And after being seen cleaning up the toilets of his local mosque, Liverpool striker Sadio Mane revealed that he would have preferred that his act of kindness remain private.

The 26-year-old is a convinced Muslim and would visit the Al-Rahma Mosque regularly in Liverpool.

At a meeting in September, just hours after Liverpool's triumph over Leicester, Mane met a loyal faithful to clean the mosque's washroom.

Then the Senegalese decided to offer to help him, apparently unconscious images were being filmed. When he realized, Mane revealed that he had asked an unidentified person not to download it on the Internet.

"I am a Muslim, I pray five times a day and, as soon as I can, I do it at the mosque," he told the French newspaper L'Equipe.
"Once there, I found a very good friend, a Ghanaian.

"I invited him to drink tea at home after prayer and he said:" No, I have to work, I have to wash the mosque's toilets. "
"I told him we were going to do it together. At that time, someone filmed us and I asked him not to put it online.

"He swore that he would not do it and the next day it was on the Internet, and that does not really matter."

Mane, who arrived from Southampton in 2016, recently signed a new five-year contract that will keep him at Anfield until 2023.
