"Antonin Kisnky was brutally subbed off just 15 minutes into Tottenham's Champions League last-16 first-leg match against Atletico Madrid after two errors helped the hosts go 4-1 up early on. Kinsky was brought into Spurs' XI by interim boss Igor Tudor for the dropped Guglielmo Vicario but that decision was immediately found to be the wrong decision after an opening 15 minutes to forget as he twice slipped to gift the hosts a goal."
"After only six minutes, the Czechia international slipped on the turf while making a pass, allowing Marcos Llorente to eventually pick up the ball and fire it past the keeper. It was then Mickey van de Ven's turn to lose his footing, with the defender gifting the ball for Antoine Griezmann to slot home Atletico's second."
"Kinsky's complete humiliation was complete when Tudor decided enough was enough and decided to substitute the 22-year-old off only 16 minutes into the game, with Vicario coming back into the team. While Kinsky was responsible for the errors, some blame will undoubtedly come Tudor's way for deciding to put him in in the first place before hooking him so early."
Tottenham interim boss Igor Tudor started Antonin Kinsky in goal ahead of regular keeper Guglielmo Vicario for the Champions League last-16 first-leg against Atletico Madrid. The decision proved disastrous as Kinsky made three significant errors within 15 minutes. He slipped while passing in the sixth minute, allowing Marcos Llorente to score. Mickey van de Ven then lost possession leading to Antoine Griezmann's goal. Kinsky then completely missed the ball attempting to clear, enabling Julian Alvarez to tap into an empty net. After this third error, Tudor immediately substituted Kinsky off at the 16-minute mark, bringing Vicario back on. Atletico added a fourth goal through Robin Le Normand before Tottenham pulled one back through Pedro Porro.
