CL Team News: Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool

Mauricio Pochettino has selected his Tottenham Hotspur team which will face Liverpool in the Champions League final in Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium this evening.

The Spurs players have the opportunity to become legends and bring home the first European Cup in the club’s illustrious history.
