10-Man Spurs Held At PSV As Thienry Henry Draw Debut Champs League

By Nigel Philip

Ten-man Tottenham Hotspurs were held to a late 2-2 draw at PSV Eindhoven in Group B of the Champions League, and Thiery Henry drew his debut European game as Monaco drew 1-1 at Club Brugge in Group-A.

PSV Eindhoven drew first blood in the 30th minute through Hirving Lozano, but Lucas Moura replied them in the 39th minute, before Pablo Rosario canceled out Harry Kane’s 55th-minute strike with a simple flick in the 87th minute.

The game, which saw Spurs' captain and goalkeeper Hugo Lloris receiving the red card in the 79th minute, keeps the visitors at the 3rd position in Group-B with one point, same as much for PSV, who are 4th ahead of the top table crash between first placed Barcelona and second-placed Inter Milan who have 7 points each.

Thierry Henry took over his boyhood club Monaco from Leonardo Jardim and led his charges to Club Brugge on his debut night in Europe.

And Moussa Sylla got them off to a good start by feeding on Aleksandr Golovin's pass to shoot into the bottom left corner in the 32nd minute.

It took just seven minutes for Ivan Leko’s Blue Cats to pull even with Hans Vanaken sending a long raking pass onto the head of Wesley, who made no mistake from close range and sent the ball into the bottom left corner.

The result puts Monaco in 3rd place of Group-A with one point from three games and leaves Club Brugge at the bottom with one point ahead of the top-table clash between Dortmund and Atletico Madrid, who have 6 points each from two games.
