From (former) goalkeeper to goalkeeper: the Dane commented on the Tottenham manager’s decision to take Kinsky off after 17 minutes.
Antonin Kinsky‘s last game for Tottenham was in October, when Spurs lost 2-0 to Newcastle in the League Cup. Almost six months later, the Czech goalkeeper made a surprise return between the posts in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Atlético Madrid. However, things did not go very well: Marcos Llorente, Antoine Griezmann and Julian Alvarez made Kinsky’s head spin, with Simeone’s team leading 3-0 after just a quarter of an hour. Two minutes after the third goal, the Tottenham goalkeeper was substituted in tears. He was replaced by Guglielmo Vicario, who had not missed a game since that 29th of October in the League Cup.
