Tottenham return to European competition after a year’s absence and take on the champions from Azerbaijan at home

Qarabag’s Matheus Silva, front, and Tottenham’s Son Heung-min fight for the ball during the Europa League soccer match between Tottenham and Qarabag in London, Thursday, Sept.

The Weserstadion has some history with electrical issues, too: I remember attending a Germany v Scotland friendly in 1999 in which the lights went out during the half-time break, delaying the restart considerably.
