Teenager Josh Coburn was the hero as Middlesbrough produced another FA Cup upset by knocking out Tottenham with a 1-0 extra-time victory in the fifth round.

Boro dumped Manchester United out on penalties at Old Trafford in the fourth round and followed it up in style to beat Spurs, with 19-year-old Josh Coburn’s 107th-minute strike settling the tie.

The Championship outfit were the better side throughout, booking their quarter-final spot and ensuring Spurs will end another season without a trophy after an abject display on Teesside.

Middlesbrough now join Manchester City and Crystal Palace in the quarter-finals after both Premier League sides recorded victories of their own.

Relive all the action from the Riverside Stadium below.

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

87 mins: Close! Son Heung-min swings a corner into the box and Eric Dier heads over the bar!

Save! At the other end of the pitch Marcus Tavernier drives through the centre of the Tottenham half and then slips a ball into the right side of the box for Isaiah Jones. He drills a low left-footed shot at goal but Hugo Lloris dives low to his left and palms it away!

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

84 mins: Tottenham’s changes have pushed them slightly higher up the pitch but they’re still finding it tough to play through Middlesbrough. Boro have won there last seven home games and know how to grind out victories here. As it stands this tie is heading for extra-time. We will see a late goal yet?

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

81 mins: Steven Bergwijn and Emerson Royal have come on for Tottenham replacing Matt Doherty and Ryan Sessegnon.

Bergwijn gets stuck in immediately. He starts a move by giving the ball to Harry Kane before continuing his run into the box. Kane passes it back to him and Bergwijn shifts in front of McNair and taking the ball into the six-yard box. He sets up a right-footed shot but McNair dives in front of him and blocks the effort! Great defending.

78 mins: Howson robs the ball off Son in the middle of the pitch and carries the ball into the Tottenham final third. He passes it out wide to Crooks who plays it into Sporar. Sporar turns the ball into the box to set up Balogun for a first time shot but he blasts his effort over the crossbar!

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

75 mins: Middlesbrough win a free kick on the left wing that gets swung deep into the box where Hugo Lloris comes and claims the ball. Tottenham need to up the tempo if they want to win this game. They’ve been in second gear for most of this game.

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

72 mins: Marcus Tavernier chases down a Boro clearance but Eric Dier has too much of a head start and calmly gives the ball back to Hugo Lloris.

The first change of the game sees Duncan Watmore taken off by Chris Wilder to be replaced with Arsenal loanee Folarin Balogun.

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

69 mins: Matt Crooks attempts a long ball down the right side but overhits it and puts the ball bobbling out for a goal kick.

The other FA Cup matches have both concluded. Manchester City scored twice to cruise past Peterborough and Jario Riedewald scored a late winner for Crystal Palace against Stoke.

Will we get a goal at the Riverside?

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

66 mins: Tottenham look a little frustrated out there. Middlesbrough haven’t let them play the ball up to the forward men and are quickly on top of them when the ball does come.

Antonio Conte looks pensive on the sidelines.

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

63 mins: Isaiah Jones cuts in from the right wing and brings the ball across the front edge of the box. Harry Winks attempts to nick the ball but gives Jones a shove in the process and ends up fouling the Middlesbrough man,

Jonny Howson takes the free kick and slots it around the Tottenham wall but can’t get enough curl on his shot to bring it back inside the right hand post.

Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham

60 mins: It’s all happening here now. Paddy McNair brings down Ben Davies and gets booked then Cristian Romero arrives and kicks off with the Middlesbrough defender before Jonny Howson gets involved. Romero is shown a yellow card as well and Spurs have a free kick.

Save! Eric Dier takes this set piece and curls a nice shot towards the top right corner but Joe Lumley is nicely across to palm it wide of goal.

Disallowed goal! Son Heung-min whips the resultant corner into the penalty area and the ball is flicked on into the six-yard box. It drops to Harry Kane who turns a right footed shot into the back of the net only to get flagged offside by the assistant referee!
