Tottenham 1-0 Real Madrid LIVE: Champions League latest scores including Liverpool & City

Tottenham vs Real Madrid LIVE: Express Sport brings you the latest team news, updates and analysis from Wembley

40: Oh Harry! Trippier bundles through two challenges before cutting it back to Sissoko, who completely mis-hits it. The ball falls kindly for Kane, but he’s scuffed it.

38: Danger! Winks tugs Casemiro’s shirt and the midfielder hits the deck like he’s been shot. 10/10 for effort.

Toni Kroos dinks it nicely over to the onrushing Sergio Ramos, who can’t adjust his body quickly enough and the chance goes begging.

NAPOLI 1-1 MANCHESTER CITY – OTAMENDI

34: Manchester City are level. Pep Guardiola’s side have been knocking at the door and Nicolas Otamendi heads his first ever Champions League goal from Gundogan’s cross.

35: Should be 1-1. Hakimi drives down the left flank before finding the unmarked Ronaldo, whose snapshot is straight at Lloris.

34:  Dele Alli has scored three goals in his last four games for Spurs; as many as he scored in his first nine this season. 

33: Real Madrid are here for the taking if Spurs can keep their composure. They just don’t look interested in defending. Clearly been watching Everton lately…

30: Casemiro creates space for a shot and forces Hugo Lloris into a smart save. That goal has lit a fire under Real Madrid.

TOTTENHAM 1-0 REAL MADRID – ALLI

27: And there’s the breakthrough!

Harry Kane refuses to give up on a lost cause and wins the ball off Nacho right on the byline to force a throw-in.

From that he finds Harry Winks, who does well to spot the run of Kieran Trippier, who squares the ball across the six-yard box where Dele Alli slides in to convert.

If that doesn’t get England fans excited about the World Cup, I don’t know what will.

26: Toby Alderweireld off with what looks like a hamstring. Major blow because he’s been fantastic at keeping Ronaldo quiet.

NAPOLI 1-0 MANCHESTER CITY – INSIGNE

21: Well you can’t say it hasn’t been coming. Napoli have been dominating things here and take a deserved lead through Lorenzo Insigne, who blazes his effort into the roof of the net.

23: Real Madrid clear Kieran Trippier’s corner buy only as far as Jan Vertonghen, whose volley back into the box narrowly misses Harry Kane.

Seconds later, Marcelo inexplicably passes the ball to Harry Winks inside the area. The young midfielder swipes at fresh air the first time round, and chips it to Casilla with his second.

20: Have Sergio Ramos and Nacho ever met before? You could quite literally lay the M25 between them. So sloppy and zero communication.

16: Spurs are going to have to capitalise on these chances. Sooner rather than later, otherwise a certain Cristiano Ronaldo will make them pay.

14: More mistakes, more Tottenham chances. Casemiro is really slow in possession and Dele Alli pinches it off him. He releases Harry Kane, who attempt an audacious chip that Casilla gathers.

11: Tottenham are in… close! Harry Kane plays a simple ball over the top to Christian Eriksen, who delays too much before allowing Sergio Ramos to recover. This Real Madrid defence looks extremely shakey tonight.

9: Isco’s corner is met by Sergio Ramos, who sneaks ahead of Sanchez to power over from seven-yards out.

8: I know Spurs have been beating teams with less possession, but they’re going to need more than this! I think the North London side have touched it twice.

Analysis from our reporter Matt Dunn, at Wembley.

5: With the match just underway, this is the noisiest I have heard Wembley, whether it is Tottenham or Arsenal – cup finals generally only mean half the supporters are singing at a time. A patch of red in the away end suggests Real Madrid did not sell all their tickets – despite the fact it is the first chance their fans have had to come this stadium.

3: Terrific atmosphere inside Wembley tonight. I don’t think the Spurs fans have stopped singing since 18:45! Steady start from both sides with the visitors seeing more of the ball in midfield.

TOTTENHAM 0-0 REAL MADRID

1: And we’re off! Incidentally, there was a very warm applause from Spurs fans when the name of former midfield man Luka Modric was read out. Nice stuff.

TWO MINUTE WARNING

A MESSAGE FROM GARETH

19:35: As I’ve just said, Gareth Bale isn’t available tonight, but the Welsh wizard has given Real Madrid fans something to cheer about.

He’s posted a training video on Twitter as he steps up his rehabilitation from a nasty calf injury.

He wrote: “Good sessions this week. Good luck to the boys tonight, gutted to not be playing at Wembley but working hard to get back out there!

“Good luck to the boys,” doesn’t actually say who he’s supporting!

Analysis from our reporter Matt Dunn, at Wembley.

19:30: Spurs, of course, are not the only ones who will be up for this one tonight. Real Madrid will feel they have a point to prove after Pochettino’s young upstarts held them in the Bernabeu. Which is worrying.

Tottenham are still getting their feet under the table at their temporary home and an early Madrid goal could make this a very testing evening indeed. But so what if Ronaldo and Co do cut loose in a way they were not allowed to in Spain?

They have done that against better sides and remember this is only Tottenham’s third season of Champions League football.

Whatever happens tonight can only build and not derail the Pochettino project.

TWITTER ROUND-UP

Geoff: Strong Tottenham line up and bench tonight, no matter the result it should be a great game and atmosphere.

Lee: It’s a group game. Don’t get beaten. We can & will qualify from this group. A win however would be Happy Days Indeed.

Kieran: Tonight I get to witness the best team in Europe play live! And I heard that Real Madrid team have a few decent players too?

LIVERPOOL vs MARIBOR

19:25: Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he’ll never under-estimate teams no matter how much the odds are in his side’s favour.

That sounds like the kind of lie you have to say. Kind of like when when your partner tries a new hair style and asks how it looks.

Anyway, here’s what the German said before tonight’s clash.

“I am from Germany so I know in 1954 we lost against Hungary in the group stage really clear then won the World Cup final. Nobody would have expected that. That’s football. That is how I learned it pretty early in my life. It’s always possible. It’s all about our performance,” Klopp explained.

19:20: Try telling the Spurs staff you win nothing with kids.

Much excitement among the Tottenham press team when they were watching the final stages of the UEFA Youth League game between the Under 17 side and Real Madrid’s youngsters which kicked off at 3pm at the club’s training centre.

A 3-2 win for the Premier League side leaves them with seven points from their four games, three more than the Spanish giants. An omen for tonight’s encounter?

NAPOLI vs MANCHESTER CITY

19:15: Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri hopes supporters will strike some fear into Manchester City. He sounds like a friendly chap…

City won the first Group F encounter between the early leaders of the Premier League and Serie A when they held on for a 2-1 success a fortnight ago.

Sarri now hopes fans can help turn the tables by creating a difficult atmosphere. He said: “Playing at home is an advantage for us with our great fans but City are certainly used to this kind of atmosphere. I would like to see some fear on their faces.”

TOTTENHAM vs REAL MADRID

Analysis from our reporter Matt Dunn, at Wembley.

19:13: Tottenham team pretty much as expected – Dele Alli makes his first appearance in Europe this season with something to prove but I expect him to relish that.

Ironically, thanks to his powers of recovery they once again have “the Kane factor” with which to unsettle the opposition. It used to be known around the club as “the Bale factor” but tonight Real Madrid don’t even have that.

Another former player Luka Modric, is a tidy opponent for anybody though, and with Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema to pick out, Tottenham’s young-looking team (Sanchez, Winks) will have to be on their mettle. Only a few seats taken so far, but the atmosphere is building already…

SELL-OUT ATTENDANCE EXPECTED

19:05: Expect delays in London tonight.

No, I’m not referring to anyone using Southern Rail, although I suppose they should always expect a diabolical service.

I’m relaying a message from Tottenham’s communications department, who recommend all fans arrive at a Wembley transport hub no later than 90 minutes before kick-off.

I suppose you can always entertain yourselves with a £9 beer or £25 burger…

WHAT CAN BE DECIDED

19:00: Here’s a look at the possible permutations ahead of tonight’s fixtures.

Group E

– Maribor will be out of the qualifying race if they lose and Spartak win on Wednesday.

Group F

– Manchester City will qualify if they avoid defeat at Napoli on Wednesday.

Group G

– Besiktas are through to last 16 with a victory, or with a draw if Leipzig win at Porto.

Group H

– The winner between Tottenham and Real Madrid at Wembley will guarantee qualification.

MADRID HAVE REAL INJURY CONCERNS

18:55: Much has been made of Harry Kane’s fitness in recent days, but Madrid travel to London with a number of their own injury concerns.

Former Tottenham favourite Gareth Bale has not travelled due to a calf injury which also kept him out of the draw against Spurs two weeks ago.

Dani Carvajal, Raphael Varane, Mateo Kovacic and Keylor Navas have also remained in Madrid as Zidane’s squad takes a hit.

TWITTER ROUND-UP

Scott: I hope we don’t whine as fans & enjoy. Statement game to everyone by winning the group. Keep rolling. We need the momentum back!

Graham: These games are usually the ones we need to win due to failings elsewhere; tonight its more about measuring our clubs progress.

Mark: Today’s game isn’t significant in for the group but we don’t want to lose 3 games in a row so fingers cross for at least a draw!

Quite a few Spurs fans singing from the same hymn sheet.

TOTTENHAM vs REAL MADRID

Analysis from our reporter Matt Dunn, at Wembley.

18:50: This is a Big One.

When I strolled along Olympic Way more than three hours before kick-off, it already felt like a Big One, an excited buzz around the place already.

Indeed, everybody has half an eye on Wembley tonight. Even the guard on the train I caught from the heart of Kent in mid-afternoon passed on his best wishes to any Tottenham fans on board.

“Good luck,” he said, “I think you are going to need it.”

The record attendance for an English club in the Champions League is up for grabs – Spurs’ home gate of 85,512 against Bayer Leverkusen is the one in the firing line – with the game a virtual sell-out and officials just waiting to see how many rock up.

TOTTENHAM vs REAL MADRID

18:45: Huge relief around Wembley as Mauricio Pochettino names Harry Kane in his starting XI.

Kane is just one of three changes Mauricio Pochettino has made from the defeat to Manchester United. Elsewhere Sanchez and Trippier replace Sissoko and Aurier, who are among the substitutes.

Zinedine Zidane makes just one change from the side who were beaten by Girona over the weekend. Nacho replaces the injured Varane at the back.

Tottenham XI: Lloris, Trippier, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Winks, Eriksen, Dele, Kane. 

Subs: Vorm, Aurier, Rose, Dembele, Sissoko, Son, Llorente.

Real Madrid XI: Casilla, Achraf, Nacho, Ramos, Marcelo, Casemiro, Modric, Kroos, Isco, Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Subs: Moha, Vallejo, Theo, Lucas V, Asensio, Mayoral, Ceballos.

LIVERPOOL vs MARIBOR

18:40: Jurgen Klopp names a pretty strong side for tonight’s visit of Maribor. Four changes from the side who beat Huddersfield.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain starts ahead of Daniel Sturridge, who drops to the bench, and will play alongside Mo Salah and Roberto Firmino.

Loris Karius comes in for Simon Mignolet, while Trent Alexander-Arnold starts at right-back ahead of Joe Gomez. Emre Can in for Jordan Henderson.

Liverpool XI: Karius, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Klavan, Moreno, Can, Milner, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Salah, Firmino.

Subs: Mignolet, Gomez, Robertson, Henderson, Grujic, Solanke, Sturridge.

Maribor XI: Handanovic, Milec, Rajcevic, Billong, Suler, Viler, Bohar, Pihler, Kabha, Hotic, Mesanovic.

Subs: Obradovic, Palcic, Vrhovec, Ahmedi, Bajde, Vrsic, Tavares.

NAPOLI vs MANCHESTER CITY

18:35: Blockbuster names all over this teamsheet. Pep Guardiola opts for Sergio Aguero over Gabriel Jesus.

It’s quite an interesting line-up from the Spanish tactician actually with four changes from Saturday’s win over West Brom.

Aguero and Raheem Sterling are in for Jesus and Bernardo Silva, while the Danilo is chosen ahead of Kyle Walker at right-back.

Ilkay Gundogan makes only his third start of the season in the middle of the park.

Napoli XI: Reina; Hysaj, Albiol, Koulibaly, Ghoulam; Allan, Jorginho, Hamsik; Callejon, Mertens, Insigne.

Subs: Sepe, Maggio, Chiriches, Rog, Diawara, Zielinski, Ounas.

Manchester City XI: Ederson; Danilo, Stones, Otamendi, Delph; Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Gündogan; Sané, Sterling; Agüero.

Subs: Bravo, Walker, Mangala, Bernardo Silva, David Silva, Gabriel Jesus, Yaya Toure.

TEAM NEWS KLAXON

18:30: The starting XI’s will be filtering through shortly folks.

ELSEWHERE IN EUROPE

18:25: All eyes will be on the events that unfolded at Wembley tonight, but there’s plenty going on elsewhere.

Liverpool welcome Slovenian side Maribor to Anfield, two weeks after annihilating them 7-0. Hard to see anything other than a cricket score on Merseyside tonight.

Manchester City go head-to-head with Napoli knowing they will qualify if they avoid defeat.

The rest of the fixtures go something like this: Borussia Dortmund vs APOEL, Porto vs RB Leipzig, Sevilla vs Spartak Moscow, Shakhtar vs Feyenoord.

Besiktas are currently drawing 1-1 with Monaco after 70 minutes. Lopes and Tosun got the goals.

EVENING

18:20: Welcome to our LIVE coverage of Tottenham vs Real Madrid from Wembley.

Following the 1-1 draw at the Bernabeu a few weeks ago, both sides sit on seven points from their opening three matches with all to play in Group H.

Spurs, fully equipped with talisman Harry Kane, know victory would guarantee them qualification for the Champions League knock-out stages.

Games don’t really get much bigger than this.
