Spurs, who trailed 1-0 from the first leg, found themselves with a second-half mountain to climb after a Hakim Ziyech strike and a and Matthijs de Ligt header had given the Dutch club a 2-0 lead on Wednesday night in Amsterdam. Moura levelled the tie on the night with two goals in four minutes but the English side still faced elimination unless they could find a winner.
