On Tuesday, March 10, Tottenham travelled to face Atlético Madrid in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 and suffered a 2–5 defeat. In doing so, they set a negative club record.

Details: According to Opta, Tottenham have lost six consecutive matches for the first time in their history. Spurs were beaten 0–2 by Manchester United, 1–2 by Newcastle, 1–4 by Arsenal, 1–2 by Fulham, 1–3 by Crystal Palace, and 2–5 by Atlético Madrid.

At the Air Metropolitano Stadium in Riyadh, 22-year-old Antonín Kinský experienced a personal nightmare. Handed a starting role in the Champions League knockout stage by Igor Tudor, the young goalkeeper simply could not cope with the pressure from the Madrid crowd.

By the 16th minute, Tottenham were already trailing 0–3, with two of those goals coming directly from glaring mistakes by the Czech keeper.

It should be noted: In the same match, Atlético Madrid also rewrote UEFA Champions League history by setting a remarkable record.
