SPURS PROGRESSES TO EFL SEMIS AT THE EXPENSE OF NORTH LONDON RIVAL, ARSENAL
Alli and Son Heung-Min have Tottenham put their recent north London derby woes behind them, with progression to the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup at the expense of bitter rivals Arsenal.
Arsenal suffered a second straight defeat after going 22 games unbeaten, with Tottenham reaching the EFL Cup semi-finals at their expense.
Mauricio Pochettino’s team went down 4-2 when the sides met in a fiery north London derby on December 2, but Alli’s impudent finish in the 59th minute added to Son Heung-min’s opener to send Spurs into the final four for the first time since 2014-15.
A banana was thrown on the pitch after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a penalty in the teams’ previous encounter and on Wednesday Alli was hit by a bottle thrown from the stands, responding with a ‘2-0’ gesture to the fans.
