London — Harambee Stars captain Victor Wanyama scored for his club Tottenham Hotspur in the second half, but it could not prevent the North Londoners from slumping to a shock Europa League exit at the hands of Belgian side Gent. Christen Eriksen put Tottenham ahead before Gent levelled through Harry Kane's own goal on the stroke of half-time. "In the second half we played with energy. Kyle Walker tried to restore Tottenham's lead with a stinging long-range strike that was well saved by Lovre Kalinic. Walker looked to exchange passes with Eriksen on the edge of the box, but Kenya midfielder Wanyama latched onto it and scored with a powerful strike.
