Just seven minutes into the match, Radu Drăgușin found himself in a terrible spot. The Romania international was Tottenham's last defender and had the ball picked off him by Qarabağ FK's Juninho. Drăgușin scrambled to try to win the ball back as Juninho raced toward Guglielmo Vicario's goal.

Tottenham made a perfect start to their Europa League campaign as they beat Qarabag 3-0, despite playing with ten men for more than 80 minutes. Kick-off was delayed by 35 minutes in north London due to “severe travel disruption”, and it was a disastrous opening for Spurs when the match finally did get underway.

Tottenham star Radu Dragusin was sent off in the early stages of their Europa League match against Qarabag in north London on Thursday night. The Romania international was caught napping on the ball as the last man and was resorted to bringing down his opponent.

Juninho pounced on Dragusin's loose touch and, as the 27-year-old striker beelined towards goal, he was brought down. As the last man, the Romania international was dismissed, forcing Spurs to play the remainder of the tie with just 10-men.
