FOUR-STAR TOTTENHAM QUALIFY FOR CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
Baku, August 26 (AZERTAC). English Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur booked their place in the European Champions League group stage for the first time, after a hat trick from England striker Peter Crouch helped defeat Young Boys 6-3 on aggregate.
A headed goal from the lanky forward after just four minutes boosted the confidence of the London side, who trailed their Swiss rivals 3-2 after the first leg in Berne.
Fellow England international Jermain Defoe doubled the lead with just over half an hour gone with a powerful left-foot shot before Crouch bagged his brace from a corner with thirty minutes remaining.
The 29-year-old sealed the 4-0 victory by converting from the penalty spot on 78 minutes after Spurs defender Gareth Bale was brought down in the box by Senad Lulic, who was red-carded for the foul.
