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 on Tuesday.

Boro dumped Manchester United out on penalties at Old Trafford in the fourth round and followed it up in style to beat the Spurs. The Championship outfit was the better side throughout, booking their quarter-final spot and ensuring Spurs will end another season without a trophy

The result could have implications over Antonio Conte's long-term future as well as that of Harry Kane, whose desire to win silverware is consistently not met at Spurs.
