Tottenham Hotspur needed extra-time to beat Tamworth in the FA Cup and you can find the highlights below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tamworth, who were heavy underdogs on UK betting sites<\/a>, welcomed a Premier League side in the FA Cup for the first time in the clubs’ history and the National League club put in a strong display at home.<\/p>\n

Enrou Beck-Ray was a constant threat for the hosts, with the tricky winger skipping past Pedro Porro and forcing a good save from the Spurs goalkeeper.<\/p>\n

Enrou, who is a sales assistant at Zara during the week, once again caused problems down the left-hand side and almost provided Tom McGlinchey with an assist.<\/p>\n

Tottenham had their fair share of chances as James Maddison showed glimpses of Premier League quality and unleashed a curling effort that flew just over the bar.<\/p>\n

Pape Matar Sarr came close to giving Spurs the lead but the 22-year-old’s strike was cleared off the line by a resolute Tamworth defence.<\/p>\n

The scoreline was level after 45 minutes of football and questions were being asked of Ange Postecoglou<\/a> given the huge disparity between both sides.<\/p>\n

As the second-half got underway Spurs started to show their quality with the likes of Brennan Johsnon, Timo Werner and Maddison coming close.<\/p>\n

The best chance of the half fell to Werner, as Brennan Johnson played a superb defence-splitting ball through to put the German in 1v1 situation but his effort was easily saved by Jas Singh.<\/p>\n

Tamworth had the chance to find a historic winner in the final stages of the match, as McGlinchey found himself six yards out with the chance to shoot or pass – but the winger’s effort had little conviction.<\/p>\n

The two sides could not be separated in the 90 minutes as non-league Tamworth took Premier League giants, Tottenham Hotspur to extra time.<\/p>\n

Spurs finally broke the deadlock after 100 minutes of action, as Dominic Solanke’s<\/a> effort forced Nathan Tshikuna to bundle the ball into his own net.<\/p>\n

The visitors doubled their lead soon after, as Dejan Kulusevski came off the bench to smash the ball into the bottom right corner after a good pass from Heung-Min Son.<\/p>\n
