Tottenham Hotspur moved a step closer to ending their a 12-year trophy drought with a victory over Stoke that takes them into the Carabao Cup semi-finals. Spurs won this competition in 2008 and given José Mourinho has four winners medals no side will relish meeting his side in the last four.
By the close Spurs were good value for the victory, dominating from first whistle to last, apart from a wobble after the break in which Jordan Thompson levelled Gareth Bale’s opener. But they steadied themselves and via fine strikes from Ben Davies and Harry Kane ended in cruise control.
