Tottenham Hotspur's quest for qualification from Champions League group B took them to Serbia tonight where they faced FK Crvena zvezda and it didn't take long for entertainment to unfold.
It has been a difficult few weeks for the Premier League side but their opening goal will have provided some comedic relief as Giovani Lo Celso eventually managed to hit the back of the net.
The Argentine's finish came after numerous chances, as the ball pinballed around the box.
Crazy goal for Spurs! ?
Hits the bar twice.

Virgin Media pundit Brian Kerr certainly enjoyed the chaos.
Spurs score dead scrappy goal.
Conor McNamara: "When I was in school in Limerick, that was the type of goal we scored on our lunch break."
Brian Kerr: "Was that a rugby school yeah?" 😂— Balls.ie (@ballsdotie) November 6, 2019
Son Heung-min soon made it two and appeared to use his celebration to offer an apology to the camera. This came just after the Spurs striker was sent off for a tackle on André Gomes which resulted in a serious ankle injury. Son had that red card overturned after a successful appeal earlier in the week.
Son scores for Spurs!
