Tottenham next five fixtures compared to Man United, Aston Villa and Newcastle

December 20, 2024

Latest Tottenham news with the club’s next five fixtures all to arrive across Christmas and the New Year over the coming two weeks

Tottenham won a chaotic seven-goal thriller to advance into the Carabao Cup semi-finals at the expense of Manchester United where goalkeeping mistakes were frequent. Six goals in the second half arrived with half of those coming directly from unforced errors.

Spurs opened the scoring early on through Dominic Solanke with Dejan Kulusevski going close to doubling his side’s advantage. The Swede did eventually grab a goal though as he turned home a loose ball following a Son Heung-min pullback.

Solanke then grabbed a second with a strong run and emphatic finish beyond Altay Bayindir. Just as the Lilywhites looked to be cruising into the semi-finals, a mistake by Fraser Forster, moments after making an excellent save, allowed Joshua Zirkzee to pull one back.

The Spurs goalkeeper was also at fault for United’s second as he took too long to clear which allowed Amad to slide in and block the ball into the roof of the net. Nerves were eased with just a few minutes to play however, when Son Heung-min’s corner flew straight over the head of Bayindir and in.
