It was a night that belonged to one man, Guglielmo Vicario. The Tottenham goalkeeper turned into an immovable wall at the Stade Louis-II, pulling off a series of world-class saves to earn his side a hard-fought 0-0 draw against AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night.
Following that disappointing 2-1 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa, Softfootball understood thatTottenham were expected to try to make amends, but it was Monaco that were by far the better team on the night, bossing possession and peppering the Spurs goal with over 20 shots. But Vicario simply refused to be beaten.
The Italian pulled off four crucial saves, including a reflex stop from point-blank range to deny Jordan Teze and multiple one-on-one blocks from Folarin Balogun and Takumi Minamino.
