Tottenham are out of the FA Cup following a 3-2 penalty shoot-out defeat to Norwich City after the two played out a 1-1 after extra-time.
Norwich City are into the FA Cup quarter-finals for the first time since 1991-92 thanks to a dramatic 3-2 win on penalties at Tottenham after a 1-1 draw, Tim Krul the star of the show in the shoot-out.
Daniel Farke's Canaries missed their first penalty, but Krul's heroics – coupled with some poor efforts by Spurs – allowed Norwich to secure their passage to the last eight despite also having to come from behind in regulation time.
Giovani Lo Celso was the chief instigator for Spurs in the first half and set up Jan Vertonghen to score just 13 minutes in, but the visitors responded well and were well worth a leveller when Josip Drmic pounced on a Michel Vorm mistake in the 78th minute.
Norwich survived extra-time but looked to be in trouble when they missed their first penalty following Eric Dier's opener, yet Troy Parrott and Gedson Fernandes both had efforts saved by Krul, securing the Canaries a famous win.
Match Events
11' SAVE! Krul denies Lo Celso's effort
Lucas flies through midfield and plays in Lo Celso who looks destined to score. The playmaker tries to curl his shot around Krul, but the keeper gets down to his right to deny him.
13' GOAL! Tottenham 1-0 Norwich (Vertonghen)
TOTTENHAM 1-0 NORWICH - Vertonghen gets up at the back post to head his team into the lead. Spurs won a free-kick on the left, and Lo Celso's cross was inch-perfect as he looked for a team-mate. Vertonghen climbed above Lewis and Krul had no chance.
50' Buendia shot over the bar
54' SAAVE! Krul parries Gedson's shot
78' GOAL! Tottenham 1-1 Norwich (Drmic)
Drmic sends the 9,000 travelling fans wild as they level with 12 minutes to go. McLean's shot gives Vorm all sorts of problems and the Dutchman flaps at it, and before he can gather his senses, Drmic is on hand to tap home. GAME ON!
86' CLOSE! Aurier misses a golden chance!
OFF THE LINE!!!! How have Spurs not scored????Suddenly Spurs find their groove and Aurier is played into space with what looks like a simple tap-in. The Ivory Coast international goes for the far corner, but Godfrey flies across the goal to deny him. Outstanding defending!
94' SAVE! Krul parries Aurier's shot
109' Krul denies Lo Celso's effort
SAVE! Finally, something to smile about in extra-time but Lo Celso is denied by Krul. The midfielder raced into the box and drilled a shot towards the near post. Krul got down to deny him before Aurier blazed the rebound into the stands.
Norwich beat Tottenham on a 3-2 penalty shootout

Jose mourinho losing to Norwich is the sign of the end of his era in football coaching. playing defensive game always and losing every time is the time for Jose to step down as the coach and be a pundit.

Not good for spurs, ever since Son and Kane got injured they have been vulnerable and their defence always concede even if they win sometimes, with time let’s hope things get better

I still don't understand why we sacked Pochettino and hired Mourinho in his place...

Newcastle play good in cup games and poorly in league. Hopefully, this formation is retained except, Bentalab and Rose should start from the bench. Instead, it should be Longstaff and Shelvey. 4-4-2 is a better formation

Who else thought if this game went to penalty shoot out Tottenham would’ve win?? Tim Krul is savage on pen kicks, spurs should’ve tried to win the game in relegation time instead playing sulky Jose Tactics, Mourinho is done round here!!!! Well done Norwich

I think is quite time Tottenham quietly or publicly tender an apology to coach pochettino, because the coming of J Mourinho make no difference.

It’s a cup game, so Norwich gave 100% and defended well. I am only surprised that Spurs have such poor players in taking penalties. But some people say penalties are easy, but you have no idea the pressure and anxiety the players have to deal with when taking important penalties which decide the game... Well done to Norwich!
