Things continued in a similar fashion after the break. Roma looked dangerous but were repeatedly foiled by Spurs’ defensive line and the offside flag, while the home side looked repeatedly dangerous on the break. But it was the visitors who finally scored another — Mats Hummels finishing from close range on the second phase of a corner.

The Italian is set to be sidelined for months after surgery on a fractured foot suffered in Saturday's 4-0 win over Manchester City, leaving Ange Postecoglou to rely on veteran Fraser Forster against Roma and beyond.

In a great match, Tottenham and Roma shared points in UEFA Europa League Matchday 5. For the home side, Son scored from the penalty spot and Johnson, while the goals were scored by central defenders Ndicka and Hummels.
