LONDON (AP) — The Europa League game between Tottenham and Qarabag started 35 minutes late. The Premier League club says it’s because of a “severe travel disruption.” UEFA says the delay was “due to a late team arrival.” The match was scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. local time. It was the club from Azerbaijan that had problems trying to reach Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in north London.
