Tottenham Hotspurs hold an advantage going into the 2nd leg of their UEFA Champions League game against Juventus after drawing 2-2 with the Old Ladies in Italy.

The London based side went behind early in the game when Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain connected a cross from Pjanic to give them the lead in the 2nd minute of the game.

Higuain was on the scoresheet again when Ben Davies gave away a penalty and the Argentine converted in the 9th minute to make it 2-0.

Spurs came back strong and dominated the game and Harry Kane niped behind the Juve defence to run onto Alli's through pass, taking the ball past Buffon before slotting into an empty net.
