Tottenham confirm Sporting CP clash going ahead of 'postponement error'

Tottenham's Champions League clash against Sporting CP will go ahead after an 'error' on their website claimed the game was postponed.

On Sunday, Spurs appeared to confirm their clash with Sporting in the Portuguese capital in Lisbon had been called off - an announcement they corrected and put down to a "technical error".

A statement read: "Due to a technical error, Tuesday's match against Sporting CP is displaying as postponed on our website.

"We can confirm this is incorrect - the match is going ahead as planned. We are looking into the issue urgently and apologise for any inconvenience caused.

"The technical issue on our website is now fixed. We thank our fans for their patience on this matter."
