Tottenham vs Celtic Highlights: Wembley Cup highlights

Celtic’s second-string side warmed up for this week’s Champions League qualifier by defeating Tottenham in the Wembley Cup and highlighting the problems for Harry Redknapp.

Victory, courtesy of goals from Chris Killen and Georgios Samaras, means Tony Mowbray’s men won the friendly tournament ahead of Wednesday’s clash against Dinamo Moscow and they have still not conceded a single goal in four pre-season matches.

Spurs boss Redknapp, who has watched his side getting outplayed by two reserve sides during the tournament, has major worries at the heart of his defence as Ledley King, Jonathan Woodgate and Michael Dawson are all sidelined, leaving no recognised centre-back.
