Tottenham Hotspur take a narrow, but crucial, lead into their Champions League quarter final second leg against Manchester City on Wednesday night.
Spurs earned a 1-0 win thanks to a late Heung Min Son strike last Tuesday, but now face a visit to the Etihad, the home of the Premier League champions.
The Lilywhites are potentially just 90 minutes away from securing their first ever Champions League semi final, and would fancy their chances of going all the way if they make it there.
But what exactly does Pochettino need from the away leg against City.
The ideal scenario would be a Tottenham win, as any iteration of a Spurs victory would send them marching on.
The same principle goes for draws, as any possible draw would see Tottenham’s first leg goal edge them beyond City.
Where it could get interesting is the losses. If Spurs score, but lose by a one goal margin, they will still progress thanks to the away goal rule.
In summary, here is a list of all the likely scores that could see Spurs progress:
Man City 0-1 Spurs
Man City 0-2 Spurs
Man City 1-2 Spurs
Man City 0-3 Spurs
Man City 1-3 Spurs
Man City 2-3 Spurs
Man City 1-1 Spurs
Man City 2-2 Spurs
Man City 3-3 Spurs
Man City 0-0 Spurs
Man City 2-1 Spurs
Man City 3-2 Spurs
