On Tuesday, London's Tottenham won a crucial match in the UEFA Champions League against Marseille and advanced to the knockout stages.

However, the Spurs had a lot of trouble, as Marseille took the lead at the end of the first half, and a loss would have ended the North London club's performance in the tournament.

Still, in the second half, Tottenham managed to respond with two goals and continue their season in the Champions League.

After this very important victory, Tottenham's captain Hugo Lloris stated that the team showed character.

"To be honest, we were expecting a similar type of match. It's very difficult to play in this stadium, but we showed character.

In the first half, we didn't play well at all. I think we were too afraid to open up too much.

During the break in the dressing room, we had a serious conversation and started the second half with a completely different energy," - H. Lloris spoke after the victory.
