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.
  • Facing poor home form, Tottenham Hotspur have won just twice in 11 Premier League matches, leaving Thomas Frank, Tottenham head coach, fighting for his job.
  • Match incidents — a red card and two first-half strikes — decided the game as Cristian Romero and Dominic Solanke scored while Daniel Svensson was sent off and Jun'Ai Byfield debuted.
  • The result moved Tottenham into provisional fourth in the group, giving them a strong shot at direct last-16 qualification, while Borussia Dortmund now likely face playoffs and must play Inter Milan last.
  • 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.
