Tottenham Trash Fiorentina 3-0 Qualify To Round of 16
Tottenham scaled through yesterday after comfortably beating Fiorentina by 3-0 at White Hart Lane.
With the tie level at 1-1 after the first leg in Italy, Ryan Mason put Spurs ahead on aggregate in the 25th minute with a well-taken finish from Dele Alli's lay-off.
Erik Lamela doubled the advantage in the 63rd minute and Spurs' passage into the next round was secured when Gonzalo Rodriguez turned Kieran Trippier's cross into his own net.
Mauricio Pochettino's side will now look ahead to the draw for the last 16 on Friday, where they could meet Liverpool or Manchester United. Valencia, Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla are also potential opponents.
Irrespective of whom they meet, they will be without Alli for the first leg on March 10 as he earned a one-game suspension after he was given a yellow card for diving.
