Lucas Bergvall was substituted in for Tottenham with 20 minutes remaining in the Champions League round of 16 match against Atletico Madrid. He contributed as Tottenham won the match 3-2 but lost 5-7 on aggregate, resulting in elimination from the tournament. " This victory ended an eight-match winless streak across all competitions for Tottenham, providing a positive result for new coach Igor Tudor.
Bergvall had not played for Tottenham since January 20, when he suffered an ankle injury in a Champions League match against Dortmund that required surgery. Earlier in the day, Bergvall was selected for Graham Potter's playoff squad for World Cup qualifying in about a week. Bergvall had been on the pitch for one minute when Atletico equalized to make it 2-2.
In the final minutes, Tottenham received a penalty after Xavi Simons was fouled in the penalty area, with Bergvall involved in the buildup to that attack. Simons scored the penalty for 3-2 and immediately retrieved the ball to chase another goal, as Tottenham created a couple of chances to make it 4-2 in added time. Atletico will now face Barcelona in an all-Spanish quarterfinal.
