Tottenham player ratings vs Middlesbrough: Heung-min Son full of errors as Matt Doherty fades badly
Tottenham crashed out of the FA Cup to Championship side Middlesbrough, losing 1-0 to Josh Coburn’s extra-time strike.
The defeat means Spurs run without a trophy will extend to a 15th season and they still have not won the FA Cup since 1991.

Hugo Lloris 7
Kept Spurs in the tie with smart saves from Isaiah Jones and Marcus Tavernier. Commanded his area well and powerless to keep out the goal.
Cristian Romero 5
Allowed Coburn to escape behind for the decisive moment. Made a couple of eye-catching blocks and tackles but his defending, particularly at set pieces, was largely suspect.
Eric Dier 5
Failed to stop the pass for Coburn’s winner as the substitute ran into acres of space. Twice went close to scoring with a free-kick well saved and header over the bar. Made a last-ditch tackle to stop Boro scoring late in normal time
Ben Davies 6
Set Sessegnon free with an excellent early pass but it was to be his only attacking contribution of note.
Matt Doherty 5
Threatened to follow up his first goal for the club with another, but blazed over with the goal gaping before sending a low effort wide. Faded as the game went on and offered next to nothing in the second half.
Harry Winks 5
Squandered possession too often and gave away some cheap fouls in dangerous areas during an underwhelming showing.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg 5
More than once was outfoxed by Boro’s midfielders, who often looked the more composed pair. Aimed some several diagonals over the top –but none came off.
Ryan Sessegnon 6
Spurs’ brightest player in the early exchanges but struggled to make an impact as the game went on. His touch and passing was often erratic.
Dejan Kulusevski 6
