Tottenham Hotspur did just enough to overturn their first-leg deficit with a 3-1 victory (3-2 on aggregate) over AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League round of 16.

After a tentative first half, they clicked into gear after the break, creating enough chances to win the game easily and scoring twice more. Odobert scored his first two goals for Tottenham, producing his best ever display for the club. It was strikingly different from the flat performance in the first leg in the Netherlands last week.

Facing a 1-0 deficit after a dreadful first-leg performance, Tottenham hit back to go in front in the tie through goals from Wilson Odobert and Maddison in Thursday's second leg. Peer Koopmeiners made it 2-2 on aggregate just past the hour mark, but Odobert – who had not scored for Spurs until Thursday – grabbed his brace to send them through.
