Hugo Lloris has insisted he is fully focussed on football, despite gifting Barcelona the lead in Tottenham Hotspur’s Champions League defeat in the goalkeeper’s first game since pleading guilty to drink-driving.

Having been restored to the starting line-up by manager Mauricio Pochettino for Tottenham’s biggest game of the season so far, Lloris made a terrible second-minute blunder that allowed Philippe Coutinho to score and the Spurs captain got away with a similar mistake in the second half.

Pochettino afterwards claimed that the early error from Lloris was more decisive than Lionel Messi’s superb two-goal performance in Barca’s 4-2 victory and the Frenchman conceded he needs time to regain his confidence.

Lloris was banned from driving for 20 months and fined £50,000 after admitting to being more than twice over the drink-drive limit when he was stopped in the early hours of August 24.

He played in the 3-0 victory over Manchester United three days after being pulled over by police and was handed his punishment while he was out with a thigh injury.
