Mauricio Pochettino arguably produced the result of his Paris Saint-Germain managerial spell on Tuesday night as the French side earned an excellent 4-1 win over Barcelona at the Nou Camp – and Tottenham fans have reacted.

Pochettino returned to the dugout with PSG at the beginning of January following the club’s decision to remove Thomas Tuchel – who has since moved to Chelsea. Pochettino played for PSG during his playing career.

Though he has already lifted silverware with PSG – the 2020 Trophee Des Champions – Pochettino masterminded his best result since taking over, recording his tenth win in 12 league and cup outings, in the process.

Indeed, PSG came from behind after a Lionel Messi to beat Ronald Koeman’s side 4-1 on the night. Kylian Mbappe stole the headlines, scoring a sensational hat-trick – the third seeing him curl a beautiful effort into the top corner.

On-loan striker Moise Kean, who has impressed following his move from Everton, also got on the score sheet with a close-range header that Marc-Andre ter Stegen could not keep out. It saw PSG earn a 4-1 away win.

Tottenham supporters have reacted on Twitter to the news that Pochettino and PSG earned a brilliant win in the Champions League – and many are frustrated, given their side’s lack of form under current boss Jose Mourinho.
