Spurs condemn 'cowards' for racially abusing Tel
The club, who lost 4-3 on penalties after letting slip a two-goal lead, said people who had sent abusive messages to Tel on social media were "nothing but cowards".
Tel, 20, came on as a substitute in the 79th minute and was one of two Spurs players who failed to convert from the spot in the penalty shootout.
"Mathys showed bravery and courage to step forward and take a penalty, yet those who abuse him are nothing but cowards - hiding behind anonymous usernames and profiles to spout their abhorrent views," Tottenham said.
"We will work with the authorities and social media platforms to take the strongest possible action against any individual we are able to identify.
"We stand with you, Mathys."

Premier League Soccer: Livestream Aston Villa vs. Newcastle From Anywhere
Having been pipped by Newcastle to a Champions League spot at the end of last season, Aston Villa has the opportunity to exact revenge at home today as it hosts the Magpies in this first Saturday fixture of the new English Premier League campaign. Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch Premier League games as they happen, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if it's not available where you are. The hosts are largely unchanged from last season, with Villa's main summer signing Evann Guessand set to make his EPL debut today following the Ivorian striker's $40 million move from Nice. Villa boss Unai Emery may be disappointed by his club's relatively quiet transfer window, but that frustration is likely to pale in comparison to that of his opposite number. Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has seen several key targets, including Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Šeško, head elsewhere. And his star striker Alexander Isak's effort to force through a move to Liverpool means the Swedish international is unlikely to play for the Geordies again. Aston Villa takes on Newcastle United on Saturday, Aug. 16, at Villa Park in Birmingham, with kickoff set for 12:30 p.m. BST. That makes it a 7:30 p.m. ET or 4:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 9:30 p.m. AEST kickoff in Australia on Saturday morning. Anthony Elanga is set to make his first EPL appearance for Newcastle today following his $71 million move from Nottingham to watch Aston Villa vs. Newcastle in the US without cable This match at Villa Park will be broadcast on USA Network, which you can access as part of your cable package or at the NBC Sports website with a valid login. It can also be streamed via Sling TV and other, more expensive streaming TV services. How to watch the Premier League 2025-26 from anywhere with a VPN If you're traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the EPL action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance. If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions, ensuring you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial.

Liverpool have signed the NEXT Fernando Torres
Liverpool have their next Fernando Torres and he's special. We all remember that moment, well those of us who are old enough, because it was that long ago. Rio Ngumoha wasn't even born back back. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! Anfield. Under the lights. The beginning of the season. Long sleeves adidas shirts. A new striker. Fernando Torres. A special performance. Capped off with a goal. And that knee slide in front of the crowd. That was the beginning of the Torres years at Liverpool. And oh my how beautiful those years were. How adored Torres was. El Nino was the talk of the city back then. No matter how it ended, Torres was iconic during his time at the club. He was Liverpool's best player at times and definitely a crowd favourite. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range Liverpool have had great attacking players since. But they haven't really had a beloved no.9. That's about to change. Because 18 years later, Liverpool have another Torres. It's happening all over again. Once again a new era is starting. And it started at Anfield. Under the lights. Adidas long sleeve tops. Except it wasn't Chelsea who were the opponents but Bournemouth. But the end result was the same. Hugo Ekitike scoring, just like Torres did on his debut. And just like the Spaniard, he capped it off with a knee slide in front of the crowd. Ekitike's debut was as good as they come. He got himself an assist later on in the match providing Cody Gakpo with an opportunity he had to take, and he took it very calmly.
