HUGO LLORIS was guilty of a huge error early on in Tottenham’s Champions League clash against Barcelona tonight - and former Spurs midfielder Glenn Hoddle was not happy.
Lloris returned to the Tottenham side for the first time since his drink-driving conviction last month and a thigh injury.
But within two minutes he contributed to Barcelona opening the scoring through Philippe Coutinho.
Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi cut apart the Tottenham defence with a superb through ball to Jordi Alba.
Lloris inexplicably chose to run out and attempt to win the ball but Alba beat him to it, laid it to Coutinho and the former Liverpool man finished calmly.
Commentator for BT sport and criticised loris and also Spurs right-back Kieran Trippier for getting caught out by Messi’s pass
"It's a wonderful ball, Trippier gets caught with his back to play,” Hoddle said.
“But Lloris, what is he doing coming out there? Absolutely, I don’t know why he’s come out.
“He’s committed himself as goalkeeper, Alba keeps his head and pulls it back to Coutinho and what a finish that is. He’s still got a lot to do there.
