Tottenham warm up ahead of the huge clash



It’s the first time Tottenham have been in a Champions League semi-final, although they did reach the last four of the European Cup in 1962 before it was rebranded, losing out to eventual winners Benfica.


After amassing just one point from their opening three group games, it was a minor miracle that Spurs even escaped the group, but two incredible knockout triumphs over Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City have put them within touching distance of history.
