A few minutes earlier, "Spurs" had fallen into a numerical disadvantage, since center-back Radu Dragusin had been given a red card.
This prompted coach Ange Postecoglou to make a tactical move, and as a result, talented player Lucas Bergvall was sacrificed.
The Swede had to leave the field, and in came wing-back Destiny Udogie instead, in what seemed to be a defensive substitution. Despite this, Tottenham scored almost immediately after the substitution and took the lead 1–0 through Brennan Johnson.
National team striker Dejan Kulusevski started on Tottenham's bench. He came on after the break and delivered the corner that Pape Matar Sarr headed in to make it 2–0.
Qarabag immediately got a chance to reduce the deficit, but Toral Bajramov shot the penalty over.
Dominic Solanke increased the lead to 3–0, also a goal that Kulusevski was involved in.
Hugo Larsson had to settle for a late substitution in the second half, and Eintracht Frankfurt had to settle for a 3–3 draw at home against Plzen. The Czechs both reduced and equalized in the final stages of the match.
