Iliman Ndiaye scored the only goal as Championship high-flyers Sheffield United dumped Tottenham Hotspur out of the FA Cup.
A year after their defeat to Middlesbrough, Spurs again succumbed to a team in the division below following a poor display in South Yorkshire.
With Antonio Conte still out of the country as he recovers from gall bladder surgery, the manager will evade some of the flak for this defeat but, with his future still up in the air, the pressure is mounting on him ahead of a crunch period in the Premier League and Champions League. Spurs have been notoriously slow starters this season and were so again in a largely forgettable opening 20 minutes.
Spurs started the second half with some purpose and Ivan Perisic glanced a corner over while Son Heung-min could not find the target after creating room for himself on the edge of the area.Even the introduction of Kane did not help Spurs regain their verve as Pedro Porro curled wide after Hojbjerg’s long ball sent him clear.
