Tottenham have apologised to Canadian ice hockey legend Wayne Gretzky after spelling his name incorrectly on the back of a shirt.

Gretzky was at White Hart Lane to see Spurs' lose 2-1 to Arsenal in the Capital One Cup on Wednesday - and was handed the jersey in a ceremony before the game.

But on a miserable night all round for Tottenham - where they not only lost to their bitter rivals but also had their stadium vandalised by Arsenal fans - someone at Spurs managed to spell the greatest goal scorer in the history of the National Hockey League's name wrong.
