‘Awful’ - Tottenham fans rip into one player after Borussia Dortmund win

By Derkek Smithson

Moussa Dembele completed 90 minutes in Tottenham’s win over Borussia Dortmund - and the club’s supporters were critical of the midfielder on Twitter.

Spurs managed to begin their Champions League group with a 3-1 home victory over the Bundesliga side.

Heung-Min Son opened the scoring in just the fourth minute at Wembley, before a threatening Dortmund side equalised through a brilliant curling finish from Andriy Yarmolenko.

Harry Kane then secured the three points with a goal in either half, but Jan Vertonghen was sent off in the closing moments of the game for a second yellow card.

Spurs fans will have been delighted with a great start to their European campaign, but were critical of Dembele’s performance.

The 30-year-old is usually a powerhouse figure in the centre of the park and found himself struggling in the first-half to close down Dortmund's midfielders .

Here is a selection of their messages on Twitter:

Mauricio Pochettino is currently without midfield mainstay Victor Wanyama through injury, meaning he used the combination of Dembele and Eric Dier against Dortmund.

Moussa Sissoko is also in contention for a starting position in midfield and the manager could have a selection headache ahead of a clash with Swansea on Saturday.

Dembele has become a favourite during his time with Spurs and is a regular feature in midfield.

However, supporters feel he had an off night against Dortmund as he made his 202nd appearance for the North London club.

The Belgium international is usually a big fan favourite for his dominating performances and will hope to rediscover his top form next time he plays.
