Tottenham Hotspur vs Bayer Leverkusen 0-1 Full Highlights ~ UCL 02-11-2016In particular, Javier Hernandez looked lively on his return to England and the former Manchester United striker got in behind the Spurs defence in the 16th minute, but his cross was intercepted by Kyle Walker at the far post.
The hosts were forced into an early substitution on the half hour mark with Janssen replacing Dembele and the change nearly brought a goal as Christian Eriksen stung the palms of Bernd Leno with a powerful shot from 20 yards.
The best chance of the half though fell to the visitors in the 43rd minute when Walker was caught in possession by Julian Brandt.
The year-old drove into the box only to be stopped by Jan Vertonghen's last-ditch tackle. However, the ball rebounded to Hernandez, who attempted to pick out the bottom corner from 14 yards but the ball deflected of Vertonghen's foot and wide.

The hosts' only real chance of an equaliser came nine minutes from time as Dier struck a free-kick against the crossbar.
Another counter-attack from Spurs comes to naught when Ben Davies messes up a pass into Vincent Janssen at the near post.
Jonathan Tah is on hand to clear up for Leverkusen. Kyle Walker blocks from Kevin Kampl as the winger with the white bandage on his head attempts a shot from distance.
After a lively start to the second half, in which Spurs initially looked a lot more impressive, the game has died a bit of a death.
Good ball through the inside left channel into the Spurs penalty area from Brandt to Kampl. He crosses for Hernandez, who is penalised for a foul.
Ben Davies swings the ball into the mixer, where Bernd Leno gathers. Christian Eriksen pulls the ball inches wide of the left upright seconds after it looked as if Dele Alli was tripped just inside the Leverkusen penalty area by Oliver Toprak.
So close from Eriksen, but should Tottenham have had a penalty? Replays are inconclusive, which shows just how difficult it is for referees these days.
They were dreadful in that first half and are very lucky not to be a couple of goals down. Meanwhile in the south of France: Some of their play has been breathtakingly bad and a less toothless team would have punished them severely.
Bayer Leverkusen miss a glorious opportiunity to open the scoring, when Julian Brandt pounces to catch Kyle Walker dozing in possession on the edge of his own penalty are.

Walker plays the ball down the right wing with Moussa Sissoko in hot pursuit. Christian Eriksen stings the palms of Bernd Leno with a rasping shot from about 30 yards.
He was bearing down on the Leverkusen penalty area with options to his left and right, but decided to shoot as the opposition defenders were backing off him.
Mousa Dembele off, Vincent Janssen on. Spurs win a corner, which Bayer Leverkusen clear as far as Kyle Walker. He loses possession with a poor pass to Dele Alli, inviting Leverkusen to gallop clear on the counter.
Mousa Dembele, who appears to be injured, sprints back to prevent Julian Brandt teeing up Mehmedi. Having been contentiously left out, it looks as if striker Vincent Janssen is about to come on for Spurs.
