It could be a winter wonderland for AVB and his men tonight in Europa Cup action, or it could be a bleak trip home from Norway, but either way, there is no doubt it is a spectacular setting.
Reeling from their 6-0 humiliation at the hands of Manchester City, Spurs have the sanctuary of the Europa League to get their season back on track, but if they thought the reception from their fans might be a bit cool after the disaster at the Etihad, it pales into comparison of Tromso’s Alfheim Stadium.
Located in the Arctic Circle, the 6,000 seater stadium with synthetic surface will be a little on the chilly side tonight, though Tottenham have already secured their qualification for the final 32 of the competition.
James Dart has tweeted a brilliant picture of the stadium lit up in the snowy surroundings before tonight’s kick-off.
