Good morning football fans, 

There were fireworks in Marseille as Spurs leave it late to grab a winner that saw them guarantee their place in the last 16. Liverpool won 2-0 against Napoli and Rangers slump to a 1-3 defeat at home to Ajax. It leaves them with the worse record in UCL group stage history. But anyway, it's a new day and we'll look ahead to Chelsea and Manchester City as well as the expected unveiling of Unai Emery at Aston Villa. Have a great day and stick with us!
