Tottenham have lost 2-1 against Inter Milan in their opening Champions League Group B match.
Spurs were unable to respond and suffered a third straight defeat for the first time under Pochettino.

When is it?
The game kicks off at 5.55pm on Tuesday 18 September.
Where can I watch it?
BT Sport 3 will be providing live coverage which gets underway at 5.15pm.
3 minutes
Mauro Icardi nearly gets behind Spurs, but the Argentinian is flagged offside.
5 minutes
Even in these early stages it is apparent that Spurs are pressing far better than they did against Liverpool on Saturday.
Neither side has really found their footing yet, though.
7 minutes
Inter look to be targeting Serge Aurier and Davinson Sanchez on the right of Tottenham's defence.
Ivan Perisic will pose a huge threat for that pairing to deal with throughout the night, and he gets in behind here, Aurier recovering well to block the ball behind for a corner.
8 minutes
The corner kick bounces to Radja Nainggolan who tries an ambitious half-volley from the right-corner of the area. Row Z beckons for that one...
9 minutes
Inter force another corner down their left. Some early joy for the hosts, though it comes to nothing.
10 minutes
Both sides looking to press high, and Inter are doing so well early on. Ben Davies runs the ball out of play and concedes a throw in a dangerous position.
11 minutes
Twice the ball is put in dangerously, with Davinson Sanchez forced into an acrobatic clearance before Michel Vorm collects to settle Spurs.
Erik Lamela is felled as the visitors look to attack, and they have a free-kick just about within shooting range centrally.
12 minutes
Christian Eriksen disperses his team-mate, and trots up to the ball...
On target, but routinely parried away by Samir Handanovic.
14 minutes
Matteo Politano is diminutively built but possesses serious power in his long throw.
He launches one into the box but the resulting effort is high, wide and not particularly handsome.
