The Tottenham Hotspur team entered the match with great pressure after a series of poor results in the Premier League. However, coach Thomas Frank and his team had an impressive performance, completely overwhelming the representative from Denmark.
Tottenham opened the scoring in the 19th minute thanks to Brennan Johnson after a sprint and a technical finish against goalkeeper Dominik Kotarski. The home team doubled the gap before the end of the first half with a goal by Wilson Odobert, after the opposing goalkeeper made a mistake.
In the second half, Tottenham struggled when Brennan Johnson was sent off in the 56th minute after a dangerous tackle on Marcos Lopez. However, the English team still maintained the initiative and continued to score 2 more goals. Center back Micky van de Ven scored a superb solo goal from home, overcoming 4 Copenhagen players before finishing to increase the score to 3-0. At the end of the match, substitute Joao Palhinha sealed a 4-0 victory for Tottenham.
Despite the loss, the home team still completely controlled the game, while Copenhagen played in a lack of cohesion and did not create significant pressure. This was Tottenham's first home win in the Champions League this season, while helping the team consolidate their position in the group leading the group.
