Sky Sports used the former Premier League striker Clinton Morrison to analyze the fight in Athens, and he straightened quickly focus on the dane.
- I love Christian Eriksen as a player, and all players have bad days, but he had a complete nightmare of a fight. He had problems even with simple passes, he says, and continues:
- This is the worst fight I've seen Eriksen play in a Tottenham shirt. He cost Olympiakos' second goal, when he hesitated with the ball. In such a struggle, one could just as well have taken him out. It just worked for him, said Morrison.
Christian Eriksen, however, was not picked out, but was allowed to be on the field for all 90 minutes, even though manager Mauricio Pochettino changed three of the offensive players out in the course of the second half.
Tottenham brought out already in the first half to plan ahead 2-0 at the Karaiskakis Stadium in Athens on the goals of Harry Kane and Lucas Moura, before Daniel Podence reduced shortly before the break.
Nine minutes after the break koksede Eriksen ahead of tottenham's box, before Jan Vertonghen somewhat clumsy committed the penalty which Mathieu Valbuena traded to the final result.
