The awkward moment between Mauricio Pochettino and Daniel Levy during Spurs' 7-2 defeat

Former Tottenham goalkeeper Paul Robinson has detailed the interaction he saw between Mauricio Pochettino and club chairman Daniel Levy after the 7-2 loss to Bayern Munich.

Son Heung-Min gave Spurs the lead but Joshua Kimmich hit back for the visitors, before Robert Lewandowski handed the Germans a 2-1 advantage at half-time.

Harry Kane scored from the penalty spot after the break but four goals from Serge Gnabry and another from Lewandowski ensured a heavy defeat for Spurs.

Robinson, who was commentating on the match for Sky Sports News, opened up post-match on a 'worrying' interaction he saw between Pochettino and Levy after the Champions League clash.

"Pochettino was sat down in the dugout for most of the second half and that's not him normally.

"He didn't do that last season," Robinson told Sky Sports.

"His body language and his replies in the media, he doesn't seem himself. There is something clearly amiss.

"There was one shot there that worried me at the end of the game.

"I think it was two or three minutes to go and they were seven down, he looked up to the directors' box at Daniel Levy and he pulled one of those (out of ideas) type of faces. He couldn't wait to get off the pitch."
