Tottenham threw away a two-goal lead as they opened up their Champions League campaign with a 2-2 draw against Olympiakos
 After playing with plenty of fizz against Crystal Palace on Saturday, Spurs were flat throughout in Greece and fortunate to be two goals up through a Harry Kane penalty (26) and a fine Lucas Moura strike (30)
Olympiakos - full of tenacity - got one back before the break when Daniel Podence finished clinically (44) and drew level when a catalogue of Spurs errors led to Mathieu Valbuena netting from the penalty spot (54)
In last season's competition, Mauricio Pochettino's side recovered from taking one point from their first three games to finish second in their group and this early slip up could make qualification tricky once again with Bayern Munich and Crvena Zvezda to come
Olympiakos came into this clash unbeaten in their last 17 matches in all competitions and backed by a boisterous home crowd, the Greeks bossed the opening period
Podence had already tested Hugo Lloris when he struck the post on 18 minutes after a quick attack left Spurs seeing stars
 It was a fine effort from a tight angle but luck wasn't on his side as the ball rebounded back into play before Guilherme's effort sailed over the crossbar
Spurs were non-existent as an attacking unit, until Kane slalomed his way into the penalty area on 26 minutes and was tripped by Yassine Meriah
 The England skipper - who missed his last spot kick for his country against Kosovo - dispatched the penalty into the roof of the net
That goal sparked the visitors into life and Moura doubled their advantage four minutes later
After breaking up Olympiakos' play down the left, Moura found space to hammer home a thumping effort into the top corner
A team with Tottenham's experience should be capable of seeing out a two-goal advantage but they offered Olympiakos a way back into the match just before the break
Podence and Valbuena - the best players on the pitch - combined to devastating effect and Podence drilled a clever finish into the corner
The hosts continued to show more intensity than Spurs and were awarded a penalty on 53 minutes
Christian Eriksen - ponderous throughout - failed to clear his lines after a spell of pressure which allowed Valbuena to receive the ball inside the area and Jan Vertonghen carelessly tripped him from behind
 Valbuena stroked home from the spot
Olympiakos were happy with their lot from that moment on which gave Spurs a platform to dominate the ball for the final quarter, although their quality was lacking
Erik Lamela decided to shoot from a tight angle instead of squaring to Kane in the final stages as Spurs' frustrations were clear to see
It was hard to rate any Tottenham player over a six, bar Kane
 The game's clear standout player was the Portuguese attacker who gave Ben Davies a torrid time with his tricky movement and speedy transitions
 His link up play with the equally brilliant Valbuena caught the eye - chemistry that Tottenham couldn't match with their forward play
 Podence had three on shots on target in the game, hit the post, scored a deserving goal and made three key passes to his team-mates
"I feel very disappointed
 To be honest, first half I wasn't happy with our performance
 From the beginning we had a plan
 We didn't respect the plan
 I told the players at half-time
 We scored two goals but if you only analyse the performance it wasn't great
 We conceded a lot of chances to them and the first goal was so painful
 We didn't translate that type of aggression these type of games demand
"Former Premier League striker  was watching the game for : "I love Christian Eriksen as a player, and all players have bad days, but he's had an absolute nightmare of a game
 He even struggled with the simple passes
"Eriksen had the worst game I've seen him have in a Tottenham shirt
 He was at fault for the second Olympiakos goal, dilly dallying on the ball
 He put Spurs under pressure trying to play out from the back and then Vertonghen fouled Valbuena
"In a game like this you might as well had just taken him off, it's just wasn't happening for him
""I think it is a difficult place to go
 In the first game of a European campaign away from home a point is always a good result
 Now, the mindset changes when you've been two goals up because you think you must've done something wrong, but that game was difficult for Spurs even before they went two goals up
"They conceded chances and they got lucky with the one that hit the post
 They could've easily been a goal down so overall, I think Pochettino will be reasonably pleased
"But you have to, as a footballer, have a little bit of disappointment within you when you've lost a two-goal lead because you pride yourself on being able to keep leads
"Spurs are back in action on Saturday lunchtime with a trip to Leicester in the Premier League, kick-off at 12
30pm
 Their next Champions League fixture is a home match against Bayern Munich on Tuesday, October 1
