24/25 English Cup thread

Eriksen 6-0 from Bruno. Barnsley really are terrible though.

 

[Jussi]

Eriksen again 7-0.

Preston Fulham also into penalties.

Why wasn't the whistle blown the second the 90 minute mark was hit? The game is over, blow the whistle and end it.

The refs have to use all the time.

Preston-Fulham have went the full round of shooters already.

 

[Jussi]

Preston beat Fulham 16-15 (!) on penalties.

Almost all the PKs of the 34 attempts were very well taken in the Preston - Fulham shootout. Apart from the missed three, Sessegnon's 2nd PK was a bit lucky to go in, bouncing from the post to keeper's body and then in.

Castagne made the decisive mistake by shooting over the bar.

Isn't stoppage time entirely at the discretion of the referee? In a league format where goal difference matters I understand why it would be a must but in a 7-0 knockout cup match just end it because absolutely nothing good can happen.

No they measure it pretty accurately.

Because of the morons who decided 9 minutes is a good time for extra time in La Liga I missed the first two minutes of the Spurs game as the broadcast was still on the Spanish game. I can't wait until players go on strike so we can get rid of these Pejorative Slured extra time periods. A lot of rotation from Ange but it's good cause I get to see Dragusin start.

[luiginb]

Odobert out with an injury, and I was hoping to see Mikey Moore who's on the bench, but Ange goes to Brennan Johnson *yawn*

 

[luiginb]

In the other game Brighton are 2-0 up, great individual goal by Adingra, who really needs to start for Brighton regardless of how much they paid for Minteh

 

[luiginb]

With this boring style of possession for possession's sake Spurs have managed to not bother at all Coventry's gk in the first 35 minutes. Dreadful.

Wolves get one back at Brighton, Guedes

 

[luiginb]

Shots are 4-0 Coventry, who are resting 7 starters by the way.

 

[luiginb]

Udogie was Spurs best player in that first half so of course he's off at half time haha Spence in

 

[luiginb]

Maddison and Son in for underwhelming Bergvall and Solanke

 

[luiginb]

Coventry 1 0 up, completely deserved

 

[luiginb]

Werner out injured as well, it's turning into a nightmare evening for Spurs.

 

[luiginb]

Djed Spence equaliser in the 88th minute with a strikers finish!

 

[erikhamren]

brennan johnson what a relief for him hopefully

 

[luiginb]

I can't believe they won this haha. Once Kulusevski Son and Maddison were in it made all the difference.

Between swallowing a crown and getting it stuck in my esophagus, catching COVID for the first time and being a Spurs fan.......trying to figure which has given me a worse week

Closest you been to a trophy…

If I could laugh at that more than once, I would.

I'm a Sharks/Blue Jackets fan, too.

And I was a Falcons fan before I gave up on being a fan of a specific team, they drove my fandom out of me.
