Tottenham beat 10-man Dortmund to close in on last-16 spot
Tottenham's 2-0 win over 10-man Dortmund puts them close to the Champions League last 16 after four consecutive home wins in the group stage.
- On January 20, 2026, Tottenham Hotspur beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, easing pressure on head coach Thomas Frank and moving closer to the Champions League knockout stages.

- Tottenham face Burnley next, then travel to Eintracht Frankfurt next week, where another win should seal a top-eight spot and a place in the last 16.
