SISSOKO REACTS
Moussa Sissoko picks up his MOTM award and is quick to highlight the team effort that was responsible for the win.
He's also asked if he's heard Chaz and Dave’s ‘Spurs Are On Their Way To Wembley’, which was being played over the PA.
He hasn't, but he's happy!

FT: TOTTENHAM 2-0 BRENTFORD
Brentford started the second half brilliantly and they put up a real fight. It was a performance to be proud of.
They almost found themselves on level terms, with Toney converting from close range.
VAR had a look and the forwards knee was offside, ruling the equaliser out.
Spurs would then ramp up the pressure and they got their second of the game through Son.
The No7 raced clear of Dalsgaard before firing past Raya.
Dasliva was given his marching orders for a reckless challenge on Hojbjerg in the 82nd minute.
The former Arsenal man went over the top of the ball catching the Spurs midfielders shin, leaving him bleeding.
Mourinho's men saw out the final minutes of the game to book their place in the final.
They'll find out tomorrow who they'll meet at Wembley on April 25.
Spurs have the Mourinho mindset!

88. Spurs are holding onto the ball well, passing it from left to right.
They're in no hurry to get a third, they've already booked their place in the final.
It's now a matter of who they will be facing. Will it be Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Man United? Or Pep Guardiola's Man City?

84. Hojbjerg is ABSOLUTELY fuming with the challenge, his shin is cut up.
His national team team-mate Dalsgaard tries to calm him down as he's rather animated and rightly so.
He's taken off as a precaution, Tanganga is on for the final four minutes or so.

82. RED CARD!
Dasilva is sent off for a reckless challenge on Hojbjerg!
The Brentford man goes over the top of the ball and into the Spurs midfielders leg.
Any hope of a comeback has just disappeared.

Ndombele finds some room inside the Brentford penalty area and flicks the ball over the leg of Dalsgaard.

69. Kane holds the ball up well before spinning off his marker and picking out Ndombele to his right.
Ndombele moves the ball onto his left foot and plays a wonderful pass through the Brentford backline for Son to latch onto.
Son touches the ball away from Dalsgaard leaving the right-back for dead before blasting a shot past Raya!
Are Spurs on their way to Wembley?

65. Aurier goes down and he looks like he's in some pain, he's holding his knee.
Looking at the replay, his foot got caught in the turf as he tried to turn, twisting his knee.
