Tottenham fans shut down Twitter after Champions League exit

Dele Alli

Tottenham Hotspur crashed out of the Champions League after losing 2-1 away to AS Monaco on Tuesday.

A lacklustre Spurs outfit registered just two shots on target for the entire match in France and lacked a cutting edge in the final third.

Hugo Lloris pulled off a fantastic save to deny Radamel Falcao on 11 minutes, however, it failed to rouse the away side into action.

Monaco took the lead just minutes after the half-time interval through a bullet header from Djibril Sidibe, following a superb cross from Benjamin Mendy.

Dele Alli was felled in the box and Harry Kane’s spot kick gave the English side a route back into the contest.

However, immediately from the re-start the Ligue 1 team pressed on the front foot and Thomas Lemar scored a brilliantly taken drive across Lloris from an acute angle.

With just four points from their five games, Spurs bowed out of the competition and will host CSKA Moscow for a place in the Europa League knowing that a point will be enough.

Here are some of the best reactions on Twitter following the result:
