Tottenham's Kinsky Thanks Support After Champions League 'Nightmare'

  • On Tuesday, Tottenham goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky conceded twice against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last-16 first leg, slipping to allow Marcos Llorente to score after six minutes before a scuffed kick gifted Julian Alvarez an easy goal in the 14th minute.
  • Interim head coach Igor Tudor handed the 22-year-old Kinsky his first start since October for the last-16 first leg at Riyadh Air Metropolitano, a bold selection that quickly unravelled when the goalkeeper's opportunity turned into a horror show.
  • Teammates Cristian Romero and Kevin Danso offered comfort as Kinsky departed after 17 minutes, while Manchester United and Denmark great Peter Schmeichel and Joe Hart publicly backed the young goalkeeper despite the errors.
  • In an Instagram story on Wednesday, Kinsky said "Thanks for the messages," while sports psychologist Andrew Lane from the University of Wolverhampton suggested the painful experience could help him return stronger as a player.
  • Tottenham will face Atletico in the return leg in London on March 19, offering the club a chance to move past the defensive errors that defined the first leg at Riyadh Air Metropolitano.
