Middlesbrough vs Tottenham LIVE: FA Cup fifth round result, final score and reaction tonight
Relive all the action as Antonio Conte’s side dumped out of FA Cup
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.
GOAL! Crystal Palace 2 - 1 Stoke
Jairo Riedewald has sent Palace back in front against Stoke. This game is into the final 10 minutes so Crystal Palace are heading into the quarter-finals as it stands.
Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
57 mins: Oh Matt Crooks, you have to score there! Middlesbrough win a corner that Jonny Howson swings in from the left side. Crooks makes a run from deep and leaps towards the cross, he’s unmarked but can’t get on top of the ball and sends a strong header just over the crossbar from inside the six-yard box! That was the best chance of the game so far.
Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
54 mins: Penalty shout! Duncan Watmore does brilliantly to hold up the ball just outside the Tottenham box under pressure from three defenders. He turns it towards goal and slides a pass into the box for Isaiah Jones. He comes sprinting in from the right side and drops to the ground as Ryan Sessegnon runs behind him to block him off. The contact is minimal at best and the referee waves for play to go on.
Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
51 mins: Harry Kane stands over the free kick which is slightly to the left of the ‘D’ in prime shooting range. He’s looking to bend one around the wall and slot it into the far top corner but slips just as he goes to shoot and ends up scuffing the ball straight into the Middlesbrough wall much to the delight of the Boro fans.
Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
48 mins: Dejan Kulusevski is given the ball just inside the Middlesbrough half. He turns well and drives through the middle of the pitch. Jonny Howson goes with him and the two come shoulder-to-shoulder before Kulusevski goes to ground just outside the box winning Tottenham a free kick.
Second half: Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
Kick off: The home side get the match back underway at the Riverside. No changes from either team at the break. A reminder that if the match finishes in a draw after 90 minutes the tie will be decided by extra-time and penalties tonight instead of a replay.
Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
Nothing to separate the teams at half-time. Tottenham’s Matt Doherty had the best chance of the half but couldn’t convert from outside the box after taking the ball around goalkeeper Joe Lumley.
GOAL! Crystal Palace 1 - 1 Stoke
58 mins: Five minutes after the Palace took the lead at Selhurst Park Josh Tymon has equalised for Stoke! Romaine Sawyers drives the ball into the box from the right hand side and drills a low pass across the six-yard box where Tymon taps in at the far post.
Half-time: Middlesbrough 0 - 0 Tottenham
45+1 mins: As those goals went in elsewhere the match at the Riverside reached half-time. No shots on target here from either team.
Good first half for Middlesbrough who have kept Tottenham very quiet.
GOAL! Peterborough 0 - 2 Man City⚽️
67 mins: Jack Grealish gives the visitors a second goal against Peterborough. That should be enough to send Pep Guardiola’s men into the quarter-finals.
