Tottenham player ratings
Hugo Lloris – 9.5/10
This was a reminder of how good Lloris is. The Frenchman made a great stop on the line in the first half and was excellent in keeping Dortmund out all night.
Jan Vertonghen – 9/10
The Belgian made a great tackle early on to stop Marco Reus from giving the Germans the lead, another fantastic night from Vertonghen.
Davinson Sanchez – 8.5/10
Sanchez also was brilliant at the back and dealt with everything that Dortmund threw at him.
Toby Alderweireld – 8.5/10
Alderweireld might not have had those key moments in the game, but he did a great job at the back too.
Ben Davies – 8.5/10
There is some concern regarding Davies taking on quick players, but the Welshman did a great job in keeping Jadon Sancho in check.
Serge Aurier – 8/10
The right-back didn’t have the greatest of starts to the game but grew into the tie as the minutes ticked by.
Harry Winks – 7/10
This was another typical Winks performance as he kept things tidy in the middle of the park, but had to leave with an injury.
Moussa Sissoko – 8.5/10
Sissoko was all energy in the middle of the park and set up Kane for the winner. The Frenchman is having a fantastic season, and this was another brilliant performance.
Christian Eriksen – 7/10
Eriksen didn’t have a great game and was marshalled well by the Dortmund midfield.
Son Heung-min – 7/10
The South Korean had a great chance to score in the first half but couldn’t get the job done. However, Son was full of running in the game.
Harry Kane – 8.5/10
The Englishman needed just one chance to make Dortmund pay, and what a finish it was. Kane held the ball up well and once again proved why he could be the best striker in the world.
