Match Thread Everton v Tottenham Hotspur.- FA Cup 5th Rd.- Wednesday - 8.15pm

Looking at that Lucas D didn't look too bothered about any possible injury - fingers crossed he's ok for Sunday!

I did laugh when Osman, on MotD, said it was a great game for a neutral... I've never seen any neutrality in a game involving Everton!

Could anyone fathom why there was so much injury time? 3 minutes first half, 5 minutes FT. Wasn't even any VAR reviews or injuries. Bonkers.
Great game of togger (for the neautrals), with plenty of MOTM performances from several of our guys. Can we please play Seamus on the RW against the RS next week, can feel a 2010 repeat if he does.

Still no time over this. The match thread should be pinned forever if we go on to win it.

I've just watched the ESPN football show and Steve Nicol, when asked his thoughts about this match said he thought it was a good job that Spurs scored
first because it made Everton come out.

Now, I'm not someone who doesn't like ex-footballers just because they played for Liverpool - with the exception of Emlyn Hughes and Tommy Smith - but is
Nicol seriously suggesting that Everton were going to park the bus in this match?

To be fair, a lot of our recent, good results have come from keeping the game tight and nicking one either on the break or from a set piece. Before the game I'd have 100% advocated us doing the same again. As it turns out, Nicol was right because if we were in any way capable of parking the bus last night it would have ended up 3-1. As it is, we had to turn it into a slugfest and just hope we were the ones that landed the decisive blow. And we did. Yers.

We won a cup tie that will be remembered for a long time by neutrals.

I will remember it for the Spurs love in by the commentators.

For me, it’ll be the near-continuos drone of “Oh when the Spurs...” seemingly sung by 60,000 Spurs fans that BT imagines would’ve been inside Goodison last night.

Think this might be a turning point for Carlo’s Tricky Toffees. Belief in the squad should be sky high after this and the United result.
