Tottenham ended the February set of fixtures only three days later with the return leg of Shakhtar. Tottenham again fielded a severely weakened team due in part to the 2009 Football League Cup Final being only three days away, and earned a valiant 1–1 draw, with Giovani dos Santos scoring his first Tottenham goal before a late Fernandinho goal sealed the leg for Shakhtar in the dying moments to eliminate Spurs from Europe.
