Tottenham’s Champions League clash with AC Milan will kick-off 10 minutes later than scheduled after the Italian team arrived at the stadium late because of heavy traffic in London. Spurs are looking to overturn a 1-0 first leg deficit, with a place in the quarter-finals at stake.
After arriving at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, AC Milan manager Stefano Pioli asked UEFA to delay kick-off to give his players the time they needed to prepare properly for the encounter. And before the kick-off change was announced, Pioli told Amazon Prime Italia: “We asked for the game to be postponed by 10 minutes, but haven’t had a response yet. It is an important appointment, we want to get through to the next round and will face this match with great energy.”
