Goalkeeper Subbed Off in Tears After 17 Minutes
11 Mar
Summary
- Czech goalkeeper Kinsky was unexpectedly reinstated for Tottenham.
- Atlético Madrid scored three goals within the first 15 minutes.
- Kinsky was replaced by Vicario after a difficult 17-minute performance.

Antonin Kinsky, Tottenham's Czech goalkeeper, endured a difficult Champions League debut on March 11, 2026. After being sidelined since October 29, 2025, Kinsky was surprisingly chosen to start against Atlético Madrid in the round of 16 first leg.
However, his return was short-lived and tumultuous. The visitors quickly established dominance, with Marcos Llorente, Antoine Griezmann, and Julian Alvarez each finding the net within the first 15 minutes. The score stood at 3-0 against Tottenham. Kinsky was visibly distressed and was substituted in tears just two minutes after the third goal, replaced by Guglielmo Vicario.
