Tottenham beat Borussia Dortmund 3-1 in their Champions League opener at Wembley
TOTTENHAM (3-4-2-1)
HUHO LLORIS - 6
No chance with Yarmolenko’s stunner and lucky to see Aubameyang’s effort ruled out.
TOBY ALDERWEIRALD - 7
The organiser in Tottenham’s back three. Another assured display for the Belgian.
DAVINSON SANCHEZ - 7
Looks to be a sound investment but not the finished article yet.
Hugo Lloris could do very little to prevent Borussia Dortmund leveling the scores to 1-1
JAN VERTONGHEN - 6
Spoiled an excellent display by getting sent off, perhaps harshly, for an elbow on Gotze.
SERGE AURIER - 7
Handed his Spurs debut and kept things steady down the right-hand side.
MOUSA DEMBELE - 6.5
Uncharacteristically wasteful in possession during first-half but improved.
ERIC DIER - 6.5
Typically combative in midfield and kept things ticking over. Booked.
Son Heung-min opened the scoring for Tottenham with a clever finish at the front post
BEN DAVIES - 6.5
Made a couple of crucial interceptions but didn’t provide usual threat in attack.
HEUNG-MIN SON - 7.5
Dele who? The Korean made sure Spurs didn’t miss Alli with a cracker.
CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN - 7
Was quiet until finding Kane for the third. A telling impact again from the Dane.
HARRY KANE - 8.5
Looks so at home at this level. Tottenham’s match-winner…again.
Harry Kane scored Spurs' second goal after a powerful run and finish at the front post
MANAGER: MAURICIO POCHETTINO - 7.5
The Germans dominated the ball. The Tottenham manager won’t give two hoots.
BORUSSIA DORTMUND (4-3-2-1)
Burki 3; Piszczek 5, Papastathopoulos 5, Toprak 5 (Zagadou 80, 5.5), Toljan; Dahoud 6.5 (Castro 72, 5.5), Sahin 6.5, Kagawa 6.5 (Gotze 67, 5.5); Yarmolenko 7.5, Pulisic 7; Aubameyang 7.
MANAGER: PETER BOSZ - 6
REFEREE: GIANLUCA ROCCHI - 4
Aubameyang’s second half strike should have stood. Awful call from the officials.
Dortmund goalkeeper Roman Burki was twice beaten from his near post
