It was a half of mixed emotions for Tottenham midfielder Pape Matar Sarr.
The youngster scored the opener for Spurs with a brilliant strike from the edge of the box.
But in the 30th minute he suffered an injury and could not continue playing.
The distraught midfielder was in tears as he was forced off with the injury. Oliver Skipp came on to replace him.
The extent of the injury will be revealed later but it is a blow for the player who was set to represent his country in the AFCON starting January.
And it is a blow for Spurs as well who could be without one of their most consistent performers this season.
