Roberto Soldado is compiling quite a DVD of video nasties and produced another horror show as Tottenham crashed out of Europe. As he sprung the Fiorentina offside trap, Soldado had three choices: go round goalkeeper Neto and roll the ball into an empty net, shoot, or pass to Nacer Chadli to his left to leave the Moroccan with a tap-in. Any of those would have given Spurs the lead in the tie. Instead, he chose secret option four, pass the ball straight at Neto in trying to find Chadli. Mario Gomez nutmegs Tottenham goalkeeper and captain Hugo Lloris to open the scoring in the second half of the Europa League clash
