Ange Postecoglou was left tearing his hair out after his Tottenham side capitulated away to Galatasaray in the Europa League.

The Spurs boss made seven changes to the side that thumped Aston Villa 4-1 last Sunday, and paid the price as they were dominated by Gala’s rampant forward line.

Spurs fell behind just six minutes into Thursday night’s clash in Istanbul after Yunus Akgun rifled home a superb half-volley from the edge of the penalty area.

Wonderkid Will Lankshear pulled one back in the 18th minute, before Victor Osimhen scored twice in quick succession to give the Turkish giants a comfortable lead going into the break.

But for 19-year-old Lankshear, the joy of his first Spurs goal was short-lived as he saw red midway through the second half.

The young striker had already been booked when he clumsily flew in on Galatasaray midfielder Gabriel Sara, leaving the referee with no choice but to brandish a second booking.

Lankshear headed straight down the tunnel with his head in his hands and was consoled by a member of the Tottenham backroom staff as he headed back to the dressing rooms.

Dominic Solanke converted a slick backheel flick after the home side failed to capitalise on endless attempts on the Tottenham goal, but his efforts were to no avail as Spurs headed home to N17 empty-handed.

Gala now sit top of the Europa League table, with Spurs dropping down to fifth as their winning run in the competition came to an abrupt end.
