Tottenham Hotspur were beaten 2-1 by Inter Milan at the San Siro last night.

Glenn Hoddle has criticised Tottenham Hotspur’s Lucas Moura for not taking responsibility for Inter Milan’s second goal last night on BT Sport.

Moura was brought on as a second-half substitute for Spurs and he impressed in an attacking sense at the San Siro.

However, the Brazilian didn’t carry out his defensive duties at a crucial corner in the last minute.

The £23 million signing back in January (BBC Sport) seemed to charge out of his zone at the crucial time, as Spurs conceded in the final stages.

And Hoddle claims that Pochettino will have been fuming with the in-form attacker.

Hoddle said: “I’ve got to say about Moura. He’s in that six yard box. He heads that away if he stands still.

“What he’s doing there in the first place I don’t know, but if you are there take responsibility. He’s looking to run out! That would do your head in as a manager.”

Tottenham had taken the lead against Inter when Christian Eriksen’s strike looped over Samir Handonovic and into the back of the net.

It looked as if they would pick up an impressive three points, but Spurs’ season went from bad to worse in the final minutes.

Mauro Icardi struck a late leveller and then Matias Vecino completely turned the game around when he headed home in injury time.
