UCL draw: King insists Spurs won’t be underestimating RB Leipzig

Former Tottenham defender Ledley King says there’ll be no underestimating Champions League round of 16 opponents RB Leipzig.

The two clubs were paired together in today’s draw.

King said, “It’s going to be a tough test. RB Leipzig play with pace and intensity and they have been a surprise package so far, so it will be a good game.”

“You do not get much tougher than Bayern Munich but it’s tough going to Germany and Leipzig are a good side, and one we won’t be taking lightly. Having been a club that has been in the Champions League for the past five or six seasons, I’m hoping we can use that experience to get past a relatively new side in the competition.

“The manager has been there and done it, he has won the Champions League and hopefully his experience will rub off on the players, and see them through.”
