Tottenham Hotspur’s biggest match of the season came Thursday night as they visited Eintracht Frankfurt in the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals.
Both sides locked 1-1 after a first entertainment stop in north London, and the Spurs missed a game in the second half after trailing visitors early. Pedro Porro canceled Hugo Ekitike's excellent opener midway through the first half and dominated the rest of the game.
It was known for a long time that the Spurs sports came down to their success in Europe, and they suffered more family pain over the weekend. The Wolves lost to them 4-2, which brought them to the 15th weekend at the Premier League table.
Instead, Frankfurt won on Sunday. They beat Heidenheim 3-0 to ensure they maintained a three-point advantage over fourth-place Leipzig in their very promising pursuit of returning to the Champions League.
The winner of this match will meet with Bodo/Glimt or Lazio in the semi-finals. The popular Italians have a 2-0 deficit in Rome.

Dino Topmoller chose to oppose the wholesale changes in the Bundesliga over the weekend, and Hugo Ekitike once again entered the scoring piece in a victory over Frankfurt with a 3-0 victory over Heidenheim. Mario Gotze and Nathaniel Brown are one of the few players to cross the bench and likely to return to XI on Thursday.
Brazilian goalkeeper Kaua Santos is the N17 hero who will keep his place on the injured Kevin Trapp between the outposts. Eric Ebimbe and Krisztian Lisztes both struggled with the disease before the second round, and both suspected of playing the role.
Ansgar Knauff is nursing a knee injury but can be ready for the Spurs visit in time.
Frankfurt predicts the lineup with Tottenham Hotspur (4-2-3-1): Kaoa; Kristenson, Koch, Tuta, Titt; Skhiri, Larsson; Brown, Gotz, Bahoya; ekitike.
Postecoglou was unsurprisingly spinning a lot of spins over the weekend, with only six players maintaining their position in the first round. While Dejan Kulusevski's return move has given the manager some thought, we should expect the Spurs to be similar to last week.
The Swedes appeared on the bench of Molineux and could return to Frankfurt's starting lineup, potentially replacing Brennan Johnson on the right.
Kevin Danso is expected to pay off, too, but Austrian International won't let Cristian Romero be the team. Micky van de Ven will re-engage with Argentina. Central defender Radu Dragusin is absent for a long time.
Tottenham's predicted lineup with Frankfurt (4-3-3): vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bergvall, Bentancur, Maddison; Kulusevski, Solanke, son.
Of course, this is the night when the Ange Postecoglou era ends. The Spurs are as good as last Thursday months, but you can’t help but think they’ll waste their chances on their first leg in Germany.
Kulusevski's rewards are huge, but we haven't seen the Spurs produce Appropriate Ever since Mauricio Pochettino left town six years ago, Europe's performance has left Europe. Although they don't need the miracle of Ajax style, the team must find some places to ease the hustle and Frankfurt side, which will bring the game to the men of Postecoglou this time.
Expect tourists to wither.
