Mathys Tel turn hero to zero as he conceded penalty which Calvert Lewin thumps in to make it 1-1

Mathys Tel has gone from hero to zero as he gives a penalty away for a high boot on Ethan Ampadu.

After having scored a spectacular goal early in the second half, Tel had put Spurs one step closer to escaping relegation.

However, 20 minutes, he has put his side on the backfoot after conceding a penalty.

Mathys Tel turns hero to zero for Tottenham

His attempt to a overhead kick clearance turned into a high boot to Ampadu. Tel didn’t know that the player was coming in, but he did catch him high in the face.

The acrobatics inside Spurs’ box turned costly for Roberto De Zerbi’s side with the referee pointing to the spot after a VAR review on the pitch side monitor.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin stood over the penalty and smashed one on to the top left corner. Antonin Kinsky went the right way but the strike was too powerful for any keeper to stop it.
