Pochettino’s side were in danger of a surprise exit when Burnley scored twice in the first eight minutes of Wednesday’s third-round replay at White Hart Lane. But those goals from Marvin Sordell and Ross Wallace were cancelled out by Tottenham midfielders Paulinho and Etienne Capoue before half- time. Vlad Chiriches headed Spurs in front early in the second half and Danny Rose netted soon after to seal a victory that booked a fourth-round home tie against Leicester later in January. Tottenham’s superb recovery was exactly what Pochettino needed after his team’s disappointing Premier League defeat at struggling Crystal Palace last weekend and the Argentine was quick to show his gratitude for their spirited efforts. “I’m happy because we showed our character to go through,” he said. “It’s difficult to explain the start, you need to be focused and maybe for the first goal we were not. “But after 2-0 down we fixed something from a tactical point of view and if we take these first 10 minutes out then we deserved to go to the next round. “The most important thing was how the team came back into the game. We showed character and faith to come back and get into the fourth round.

  • Matches – 19 October 1968
    Matches – 19 October 1968 – Burnley 5 Leeds United 1 First Division – Turf Moor – 26,423 Scorers: Bremner 23 min Burnley: Thomson, Smith, Latcham, Dobson, Waldron, Blant, Thomas, Murray, Casper, Coates, Kindon Leeds United: Sprake, Reaney, Cooper (Lorimer 70), Bremner, Charlton, Hunter, O‟Grady, Giles, Jones, Madeley, Gray In a season when Leeds United finally realised the rich potential they had hinted at for five years, one particular game stood out like a sore thumb, a very, very sore thumb, indeed. Their campaign was founded on ruthless efficiency and leaving the minimum to chance, but it was punctuated by the most extraordinary of calamities one Saturday afternoon towards the end of October. United were sitting atop the Division One table as they travelled to Turf Moor to face a promising young Burnley team. They had dropped just four points in 13 games and came into the game on the back of three successive clean sheets in the League.
