Son opened the scoring for the English team at the beginning of the game, at 15. Soon after, Lucas Moura, ex-São Paulo, scored the second. Five minutes later, Harry Kane submitted, and defender Rasmussen sent it into his own goal. But the defender’s redemption came next, when he dropped to the Dutch team after a corner kick. In the first half, Bero hit goalkeeper Lloris’s corner, making it 3-2.

In the second stage, Vitesse was already putting more pressure. Tottenham’s situation became even more complicated when Cristian Romero received a second yellow card and was sent off. But, at 35, the teams returned to numerical equality. Doekhi also took the second yellow card, leaving Letsch’s team one short.

Three minutes later, another sending-off: goalkeeper Schubert touched the ball with his hand outside the area, leaving Vitesse with nine players on the field. At the end of the game, a Vitesse fan invaded the field, but was quickly withdrawn.
