Lucas Bergvall can have a sleeing evening after scoring a comically own goal against AZ Alkmaar in the first stage of the Europa League round of 16.
The match in Afas Stadium started positively for Tottenham, who took two shots against their opponents, although there was no goal.
After a quick attack by AZ Alkmaar, midfielder Peer Koopmeiners took a corner that became memorable to the hilarious goal of Bergvall.
The plans of the Swedish young person did not go well after he tried to remove the ball from his team's box, but eventually kept the goal of Guglielmo Vicario.
Spurs are set for a victory and qualification for the next phase in the midst of a disappointing domestic season, both in the Premier League and Cup tournaments.
They are currently 13th in the rankings and are already eliminated from the FA Cup and Carabao Cup after defeats of Aston Villa and Liverpool respectively.
The men of Ange Postecoglou, however, had a sufficiently good run in the Europa League and finished in fourth place, after their five wins, two draws and one victory.
Their Premier League rivals, Manchester United, ended up a place higher and could be confronted with a challenging match against Real Sociedad in San Sebastian.
If Tottenham progresses further, they will be confronted with the winner of the collision between Ajax and Eintracht Frankfurt, which is planned for Thursday evening.
The comic own goal of Bergvall only came a few moments after AZ Alkmaar's wing player Mayckel Lahdo was forced off the field due to an injury.
Postecoglou has started both newcomers Kevin Danso and Mathys Tel, accompanied by the Frenchman by Brennan Johnson and son Heung-Min in the top three line.
