Tottenham Hotspur fans were impressed with Eder Militão’s performance for Real Madrid against Liverpool in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Alongside Nacho, the duo helped Madrid into the last four and sent the English champions packing – and Spurs fans are now annoyed that they didn’t secure Militão’s talents when they had the chance.
Fabrizio Romano told his Here We Go Podcast in February that Tottenham launched a late bid to try and sign Militão during the final few weeks of the winter transfer window.
Rather than the Brazilian donning the White of Spurs, he was wearing those same colours for Madrid last night in a masterful display on Merseyside.
No, Sergio Ramos. No, Raphael Varane. No problem for Madrid’s backline that only conceded only one goal to Liverpool over two legs.
Such games can become tense, out-of-character moments can occur, but not for Militão, who remained composed throughout.
Sat behind the orchestra of Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro, Madrid showed why number 14 may well be on the cards this season.
No manager in history has won four Champions League trophies and Zinedine Zidane is potentially 180 minutes away from creating history.
Nonetheless, here is a selection of Tottenham fans reacting to Militão’s performance last night:
