Kinsky's nightmare debut as Spurs crumble early in Madrid
Tottenham substituted goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky in the 17th minute after he conceded three goals in 15 minutes against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last-16 first leg. Guglielmo Vicario came on but Atletico extended the lead to 4-0 by 22 minutes, and Spurs eventually lost 5-2, leaving a daunting task to overturn the tie in the return leg. Kinsky, a January 2025 signing from Slavia Prague worth about £12.5m, endured a nightmare debut that drew sympathy from teammates and opponents alike.
