Tottenham slipped to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool on Saturday as the Reds claimed a sixth major European title. Mauricio Pochettino missed out on a golden opportunity to win his first trophy as a professional boss, as Spurs failed to threaten their Premier League rivals in Madrid. The Argentine boss made the bold decision to start Harry Kane at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium after he missed the end of the season after suffering an ankle injury in their Champions League quarter-final first leg win over Manchester City in early April. Kane, 25, has promised fans that their dramatic journey to the final of Europe’s premier competition was not a fluke and urged his team-mates to come back even stronger next season.
