SPURS fans were sent into a panic today when the club’s official app sent a notification that their home game with Liverpool had been rescheduled.
The notification came a day after Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp called for a replay of their 2-1 loss to Tottenham on Saturday.
The manager said: “I say this not as manager of Liverpool but as a football person – I think the only outcome should be a replay. Probably will not happen.” after the audio of VAR’s process to disallow Luis Diaz’s goal was released.
Tottenham’s notification simply read: “Fixture update: Our home clash with Liverpool has been rescheduled.”
But the notification actually referred to Tottenham’s WSL fixture against Liverpool in November being rescheduled.
The game has been moved to the 12th of November for TV.

Spurs opened their WSL campaign this weekend with a 2-1 loss away at Chelsea.
Mia Fishel opened the scoring in the 28th minute for Chelsea before Lauren James added a second in the 51st minute.
Martha Thomas pulled one back for Spurs in the 74th minute as they pushed to get back into the game.
Overall it was a much improved performance compared to last season from Spurs in what was manager Robert Vilahamn’s first game in charge.
