Tottenham vs Barcelona highlights

TheSportsRush brings Tottenham vs Barcelona highlights as Valverde’s side returns to winning ways with 4-2 win at Wembley.

Barcelona secured a much-needed three points with win at Wembley Stadium over Tottenham Hotspur. Phillippe Coutinho opened the goal-scoring for Barcelona, and Ivan Rakitic scored an extraordinary volley to double the lead before half time.

Lionel Messi inspired Barcelona to their second victory in the Champions League, as the Barcelona captain bossed the game from the midfield.

Tottenham broke their deadlock through Harry Kane, but Barcelona captain Lionel Messi soon scored for Barcelona to make it 3-1. Tottenham attacked throughout the second half and even succeeded in getting a second, but couldn’t salvage a point off the Catalan club.

Messi eventually scored his second goal towards the end of the match to seal the game.

Barcelona have struggled in the season so far and needed this win in an attempt to bring their campaign back on track. Even when the Catalan giants are first in La Liga, they only have 14 points from seven matches in the league.

Barca went down to Leganes in the midweek and played a 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao last week.

With this win, Barcelona maintain their position at the top of their Champions League group, while Tottenham suffer their second successive defeat in the European competition. The North London side lost narrowly to Inter Milan 2-1 in their first match of the Champions League.

Here are some of the tweets from the match:
