Before the last Champions League round, the only English team that has not yet secured a place in the playoffs is "Tottenham."
"Spurs" yesterday played a 1:1 draw at home with the "Sporting" team after a dramatic battle.
In the last minute of added time, Harry Kane scored a goal, which the London team started to celebrate vigorously, but soon VAR canceled the goal after a review.
Although the striker's teammate Emerson was closer to the goal, the goal was not counted because Kane was closer to the goal than the opposing team's defenders and the ball. UEFA explains this according to rule 11.1.
After this madness during added time, Antonio Conte was sent off the field for arguing with the referee.
"Tottenham" coach will now miss the crucial group stage match against "Marseille."
Telegraph journalist Sam Wallace reports that A. Conte may miss the next two matches for violating UEFA rules.
In Marseille, "Tottenham" will need to secure at least a point to progress further.
