Pacos de Ferreira 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur: Spurs lose Europa Conference League play-off first leg

Pacos de Ferreira beat Northern Irish side Larne in the last round of qualifying

A much-changed Tottenham Hotspur lost to Pacos de Ferreira in the Europa Conference League play-off first leg.

Lucas Silva ran in behind Cristian Romero too easily to latch on to Nuno Santos' through ball and slot into the bottom corner for the only goal.

Spurs failed to have a single shot on target.

Their European campaign - in the new third-tier tournament - will be over in August unless they win next Thursday's second leg at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Spurs boss Nuno started three summer signings - defender Romero, winger Bryan Gil and goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini.

Teenagers Nile John and Dane Scarlett also made their first starts for the club - and J'Neil Bennett and Maksim Paskotsi came on for debuts - but there were no real standout performances.
