PSG come back from behind twice in eight goal thriller against Tottenham
Thomas Frank's defiant message going into what was shaping up as a hiding to nothing – or maybe just a hiding – against Paris St-Germain was that he was "1,000% sure he knew how to build a team and a club."
Bold words when head coach Frank had the criticism of Tottenham Hotspur's fans ringing in his ears after what they perceived as a tactical surrender in the north London derby defeat at Arsenal on Sunday.
And even bolder when the opponents were the Champions League holders, the same PSG side that had cut a swathe through the Premier League's elite as Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa were seen off last season.
For an hour, in the hostile territory of Parc des Princes, Spurs showed enough determination and creation to keep even PSG's "Ultras" populating Virage Auteuil relatively subdued.
